Drum case for a snare? Do late 20s early 30s Ludwig snare drum stands exist?

Loading...

This looked like the most appropriate forum as it kinda has to do with restoration..kinda?

I have that drum I posed a while back and I'd like to get a case for it. It has literally been sitting on a stand in my room. I'd prefer a hard shell but I can't find anything apart from this Humes Enduro thing.

I'd also love to know if there are period correct stands. That would be kinda cool to have for when I do use it.

Yes they exist and are quiet sturdy despite there appearance. They look flimsy and frail they aren't, This is a W/A model but this will give you a good indicator of what to look for. this is the item number off of ebay.271796159958

The cases from back then are hard fiber cases.

just get a good plastic hard case I use the SKB Rotomold cases. http://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/SKBD5514

My Ludwig Universal snare from the 20's came with a Hamilton stand patented around 1901 - 1905. The case is a big trunk that looks like it came up from the Titanic
