Solid 1-ply maple shell with maple reinforcing hoops.
Original ‘duco’ lacquer finish.
All original nickel over brass hardware including three point strainer, internal dampener, double flange Radio King stamped hoops and tension rods.
The drum shows signs of wear but is in great condition considering it’s age.
As often the case with old Radio Kings, the batter head is a little tight but does go on fine with some tension. The reso head fits fine.
There is some gaps in the reinforcing rings which is quite common for these drums.
See photos for condition.
Freshly cleaned up in my workshop January 2025.
Fitted with brand new Remo Vintage Ambassador batter and Ambassador Hazy snare side, with brand new Puresound Custom Pro Steel wires.
