This snare should be marching into your collection!
Carlton made some stunning drums in the UK, and this is one of them! The 1005 Symphony model 14x10" snare drum with dual strainers/snare wires allow superb flexibility when playing, and sounds superb.
There is both snare wires on the underside of the batter head, as well as a traditional set of wires on the resonant head. Both function independently, or can be used together.
This snare would fit perfectly in a studio setting, being a really useful and flexible snare for a drummer/producer.
The snare has been fully stripped and serviced. As you can see, the chrome hardware has a lot of pitting, however this is purely cosmetic. The snare mechanism had been changed for a very basic Premier strainer (see extra hole in photos), which I have replaced with the carlton original strainers. One of the mounting screw holes on a single lug (pictured) sheered off, so one is missing, however the lug is held in place rock solid.
