John,
It's basically a Black Beauty with a chrome instead of black nickle plating...
Black Beauty's have that nice crisp attack that only brass can give.
A lot different from the warmer Ludaloy material of 99% of all Supra's.
Modern Black Beautys use the exact same shell design as the 400 and the formula has never changed.
Good thing!
I found a pre-serial Supra a couple of years ago but never bought it because it had extra holes where someone had changed out the strainer. I almost passed out with grief when I saw the extra holes... The seller wanted $400 but with extra holes??? I passed.
Nice drum you got there and what a find man!!!

Man, I 'almost' sold it! I've been anxious about meeting some tax obligations so I put a bunch of stuff up for sale that I hoped would bring in some $. The COB was among them but I took it down, along with a woody kit I built, because I couldn't stand the thought of losing them. It's sitting behind my kit safe and sound. It won't be going anywhere any time soon.

i love mine its the beast sounding snare i own the jazz fest is a second my super 400 came free with a 14x 20 bd and 8x12 tom that cost me 300 what a surprise i love it, i know us sharks do get the deals every now and again but i must say im done for now smelling for chrome and wood in theses waters .... i think whoever is lucky enough to buy John's is going to be one happy camper as its way under priced in my opinion hes giving it away but it is xmas ho ho ho

once the brass ceases to glitter, and the drum looses its luster, and the stage remains dark, all you have left is the timbre of family.
