Your snare in from the 60's 5 ply Beechwood shell..This is a great sounding drum...As far as the rims check on Ebay the rims could cost you 50.00-100.00 for the set..As for the missing strainer i have both side's that i would be willing to sell...Email is the best way to get me you can try a P/M but my box fills up all the time..Mikey

thanks for your help, i plan on re-cutting the bearing edge as the edges are dented pretty bad in some areas. i was planning on using a 5/16 roundover on the outside would that be correct to the original? also how much is the snare worth after its fully restored ive got 50 bucks into it right now.
