1960s Ludwig Psychedelic Red Snare Drum!

Posts: 40 Threads: 12

Does anyone know where I can get my hands on a 1960s Ludwig Psychedelic Red Snare Drum, preferably a Jazz Fest. Any help would be appreciated.

Cheers.

[COLOR="DarkRed"]There's a "wanted " section here, maybe should have posted there.

You are looking for a needle in a haystack....I don't think there exists a harder finish to find...

However, this fine gent came up with an alternative resource:

It wouldn't be "factory" but it's a good alternative to buy the Luddy snare you want in whatever color it happens to be, then go for a rewrap...[/COLOR]

They are not cheap either. Probobly $2500-3000 for one! Ouch! The only more rare ones would be mod orange and citrius mod. Good luck!

I know, I know, it's new, but very sweet

for a "Signature" piece.

I can't believe those Psych Red snares are going between $2500-3500...

I picked up my kit for $400 CAD! It has a bit of fading but I prefer it rather than the original stock colour... the greens are an off white!

You got a heck of a deal. I think, realistically, a rewrap is the only reasonable way to go unless you are a millionaire....

Did anyone notice the Psychedelic wrap on ebay for sale?

Could it be possible to fade it... get the greens to be an off white!
