This 1960-1964 Vintage Premier Royal Ace 14x5.5mm Snare Drum took me almost a year to fully restore.Its completely,100% original through-out,(apart from the top and bottom batter heads),has an unused,original set of 'Premier Double 10' snare wires fitted,(anyone who has ever tried to get hold of an original set of 'Premier Double 10' snares,should know that they are extreemly rare and very hard to come by).For its age,almost 50 years old, this snare drum not only sounds great,but looks fantastic as well.Its build quality is unsurpassed by most if not all of the high end snares on sale today.I would be gratefull of any comments you may have.Many thanks.
