Need Help! Pearl World series Snare...

Posts: 55 Threads: 6

I know it's hardly Vintage but...

I have a Pearl World Series snare form the mid 80s that has two busted lugs (mounting screw collar/holes are broken off)... I haven't been able to find replacements anywhere...

It's a 6.5x14" Steel 10-lug snare...

Thought maybe somebody here might have some insight.

I'll post pics later today... maybe if somebody has a lead on parts, I'm trying to get this up and running inexpensively. I might be able to trade for Slingerland or Lugwig lugs/hardware I have kicking around.

Cheers,

David

hi david

i've got one of these snare drums too.

can't find anything about them anywhere!!

great drum!

i've just started using it as my main snare again instead of just a spare.

so obviously i cant help with any spares, but i'll certainly try and help.

Cool Dude

Drums are loud....So play them LOUD!!!

I realize you want to keep it original, but you might want to find a doofer until the real deal comes along. At least you could play the thing. So, post the hole to hole measurements and maybe we can come up with a sub.

I just scored a '86 Pearl WLX that I rehabbed from the rubble and it came with a 6.5x14" 10 lug seamless steel snare drum. Great drum. Completely torn down and hand polished. I slapped on new heads and a Pearl D1420 20 strand wireset. Sounds awesome!Walking

Pix of the snare, or at least one of the lugs...? I may have one.

Nice snare, Les!
