I just pulled a set of Gretsch Responso snare wires off an old 1920's Ludwig NOB drum. They have a little tarnish and some surface rust that could be removed with some gentle cleaning.
I wasn't sure if there was a market for old snare wires so I called a vintage drum shop and they said they would sell me a used set for $100 + shipping. So, I figured I would offer them up here first for $70 including shipping (lower 48 states) before I throw them on eBay in a few days.
I am open to trades if you would rather do that.
Thanks.
