It's pretty obvious that vintage Ludwig Supraphonics in the 6 1/2" depth in nice condition bring significantly more money than those from the same era in the 5" depth.
Is the same true of Slingerland's Gene Krupa Sound King COB snare drums? In other words, would a 6 1/2" Sound King in nice condition bring significantly more money than its counterpart in the 5" depth?
Also, how would a 6 1/2" depth Krupa COB Sound King snare (10 lugs/zoomatic strainer) compare to a Ludwig Supraphonic in the same configuration and condition?
Are the Sound Kings in this depth tougher to find than the Supraphonics? I don't see many being offered out there? Also, what would the fair market value be for a 6 1/2" depth Sound King in nice shape, both functionally and cosmetically?
Is the sound of the two (Supraphonic/Sound King) even remotely comparable?
As usual, THANKS in advance for your help!
