These in that finish are cool as. There's a fellow playing one on you tube (snare drum revue part 2, wood drums Bob matteson) I wonder if yours sounds as good as that! I think it's the best sounding one- as he does. It's the same Mardi Gras finish. Great drums anyway.

I love the jazz era

Just listened to / watched the video . My drum sounds exactly like that one , but the finish on his is Capri Pearl and not Mardis Gras .

Cool drum, could you please post a picture of the wrap in close up? I'm planning on making a wrap or finish like that myself.

I've got an idea . Buy the drum and you get a close up view first hand ! Bowing

I'm a poor man, that's why I always make everything myself :-)
