Hey guys.
I'm interested in buying a Ludwig Super-Sensitive from a friend of mine, so I started doing my research on Ludwig snares.
The drum has a B&O badge, no serial. I found lots of Super-Sensitives online, but none of them seems to be hammered but the pics that he sent me of the drums have hammer marks on them.
Has Ludwig ever made Super-Sensitive models with hammered shells? How come they do not appear on their catalogs from the 70's?
I really want to buy that snare, but I'm just afraid that the previous owner might have been a victim of a scam of some sort. I've read in many forums about sellers "refurbishing" custom sets to look like vintage ones, snare drums as well.
EDIT : The only hammered shell snares I managed to dig out from the net are the brass models, not steel or COB.
Cheers guys, really appreciate it :)P
