ALL:
After taking another look at ALL of the feedback that was received (thank you all, BTW!), I'm still not clear on this issue. Here's why:
TommyP was kind enough to send a pic from his 1955 WMP Super Classic which features the keystone badge, dial-tone muffler and an "elevated" (if that's the correct term) snare butt. However, the drum I'll be getting that I'm trying to determine the correct muffler for, has the transitional keystone badge, is date-stamped June 1959 and DOES NOT have the same snare butt hardware.
I currently own a WMP Super Classic with the transitional keystone badge, date stamp of June 1960, white baseball bat muffler and "simple" WFL-engraved snare butt - identical to the one that's mounted on the drum I'm purchasing. Could it be because the snare bed on the 1959 - 1960 Super Classics is different from that on TommyP's 1955 Super Classic in some way? Was the snare butt changed between 1955 (TommyP's) and 1959-1960(mine)?
I've attached a few pics of my WMP drum. Please note the baseball bat muffler and simple snare butt.
Perhaps the "old-age thing" is kicking in again! Help me out....SOMEBODY!Help2
