I've got a COB Ludwig Supra, may be a Super Ludwig from '58-'59 from what I've researched. I bought this snare years ago and the badge had been removed, badly.The butt plate is stamped WFL.
I've got a few questions,
-which badge to install, a transition, or WFL Drums keystone?
-brass or steel washers for the tension rods?
-I did aquire a chrome WFL stamped P-83, but it may be missing a threaded washer that fits under the top "ball". I've seen the strainers w/ and w/ out this but there's one on the P-83 on my Acrolite and it works great. Is this part neccessary?
-Inside the shell are hand-written initials, may be a small a and a capital R,
"a R" or maybe "C U R" . I've seen the same initials inside other Ludwigs on e-bay. Any signifigance?
Thanks alot.
