I'm thinking of doing a natural lacquer or Tung Oil on this snare.
It had this Red Sparkle (factory) finish (only 1/2 on when I got it).
It's a Gretsch 1960's Dixieland - 6 lug.
I love Sparkle, but this wood is pretty nice too.
I'm leaning more toward a natural finish.
But 'what say' all you Vintage people...............
NATURAL OR SPARKLE??
