Got my hands on one of these beauties a few days ago, the original 14"x8" shell, snow white wrap. Unfortunately I have 2 broken lugs, and one completely missing. Anyone knows a source for these? They don't have to be new but I'd like to find at least 4 of them.
Also I'm looking for the actual snare wiring that fits the damping system on these snares. If anyone has any ideas where to get them, do let me know.
Catch is, international shipping is a must.
And now to brag. :D
Bought this and a Remo snare of the same size which had one lug missing for about the equivalent of $110 including shipping. :D:D:D
The Remo was one of those weird 'Acousticon SE' (or whatever they call the material) shells and a tad more beyond help then I was aiming so I sold that straight away for 1/5th of the total price paid. :D
The P1 is in good shape for it's age, though the rims do have the usual ugly pitting. They'll be on their way to get re-chromed soon. The shell is pretty solid, though there is one problem. The lugs used on these are attached to the shell with only one screw, and some of the holes in the shell have started to elongate. Is there any way to repair such damage or will I just have to live with it?
Soooo... yeah... *wheeze.* I'm happy with the deal :D
Thanks for any help!

Just noticed there's a separate section for non-USA vintage drums. I'm sorta new and have no idea if I can move my post over there, so if an admin is around do move it please. (Should it not fit into this topic adequately.)
