Here is a REALLY rare Ludwig & Ludwig snare drum! It is a 1930 New Era model. These were never in catalogs and were only produced for about a year. Both top and bottom snare wires are INSIDE the drum. I apologize for the modern plastic heads but I wanted the interior workings to be visible. The drum is 99% original. Only the lever adjustment knobs are reproductions. New Era drums were also made with wooden shells and pearl finishes. All quite rare and only a handful have surfaced. The earlier 1929 New Era models had hand engraved top hoops. By 1930, the hoops were stamped.
