I have eight of the Student Models and Student Model RKs and I can say this is an extremely fine example.
I've seen it up close and personal, she's a honey for sure.
I am guessing that it's an eight lugger? What would make it a student model, the plies?
Very nice drum!
Lucky yes all student models are 8 lug sorry not to place that in the sale copy also the Student model label is from the shell makeup and the hardware makeup, the Real Rk is either a solid shell or plied model but the rims are double flange with eyelets and the student model had double flange rims with rim clips and no snare gates. confused now?:)
No no, not confused at all! That is a nice drum, been on the lookout for a six lugger, thanks for the lesson!
