1960s Olympic 'Discus' 14x3" in original White Silk Pearl wrap.

Oval badge.

Birch 3-ply shell with rerings.

8 lug version.

Original hardware including beer tap throw off, slotted tension rods and internal dampener.

This is a snappy and poppy Steve Jordan esque snare. These don’t often crop up.

There is aging on the hardware with pitting but has cleaned up nice.

Beer tap throw works as it would’ve when it came out of the factory but it’s worth noting, when in the ‘off’ position, it doesn’t quite drop low enough for the wires to fall enough without rattling if being played with wires off. This is of course only an issue if you plan on playing the drum a lot without the snares on. If you do, just unwind the tension a bit to allow the wires to fall.

Freshly stripped, cleaned and polished in my workshop, March 2020.

Fitted with Evans J1 and Hazy 300 heads, with Gretsch snare wires.
