Serial Number: 1520195
Condition:
Considering it's age and its tendency to pit, this drum is in very good condition. There is pitting to the chrome most of the way round the drum which is a shame but very common on these. There is some very slight rust on the hoops but very minimal (see pictures). The shell's construction, internal dampener, lugs and heads are all fully functional and ready to play.
The Remo Powerstroke 4 that has been fitted is showing signs of wear, still having life left in it but could maybe do with a change of your choice. The Remo Weather King Ambassador snare side head is in excellent condition.
