14" x 6,5" Ludwig & Ludwig 1946 "Deluxe Model" Standard No.35 in Hi-Lustur Blue Lacquer
14" x 6,5" Ludwig&Ludwig "Deluxe Model" Standard No.35 Snare from August 1946 in Hi-Lustur Blue Lacquer finish. It's a 3-ply maple/poplar/maple snare with solid maple reinforcement rings.
It was listed as the "Deluxe Model" Standard No.35 back in the day and is a 8 lug snare with the classic imperial lugs. It also has the "controlled response extensions" Strainer en Butt end.
Besides the heads, the top hoop is not original, but for the rest, everything seams to be original! The blue lacquer is not in great condition, but what can you expect from a 80 year old snare?!
Due to the thin shell, the sound is warm with a very full body and dark tones. It's as if the sound just has gotten better and better of those past 8 decades!
