I'm trying to "correctly" identify the make and model of this particular piccolo snare. I believe it was manufactured in either Germany, Switzerland or Sweden.

Am I totally off-base?

It's a 12-lugger.

Any input would be greatly appreciated!

THANKS!

Brother, I think that is a Pearl. Looks like maybe a late 70s-mid 8os.

Yes, it might be a Sunlite snare. Sunlite is from Taiwan. Pearl also either operated a plant there or farmed production out to another manufacturer.
