I guess it is german, but there are no badges attached...

It is made of brass, even the hoops are brass. I think is nickeled, not chromed.

The mechanism is very nicely made. Not a cheap model, I think.

No inserts in lugs

Even damper is nice

63 wievers and no bids?

Well, you are not alone!

The experts on danish and german drums that I know of, haven´t been able to idetify it either.

Maybe just a one-off from a workshop, using Sonor hoops?

I have found the answer - it is a hungarian Medveczky!

The strainer mechanism on the WMP-snare is the same as mine, and all the other details points in the same direction. Now I only need the final confirmation from www.drummuseum.hu....

Goozl?

Cool! Dig the brass fittings on the muffler. Nice quality. The bass drum in the picture has both hoop mounted spurs and shell mounted spurs. These look like really find quality drums.
