Made in 1938 this is a Slingerland 7x14 Gene Krupa model Radio King snare drum in a white marine pearl wrap. Single ply maple shell with maple reinforcement rings. Brass hoops and professional throw off. This is 100% original! Shows signs of use with scratches, scuffs, and yellowing of the wrap which is common. The yellowing isn't too bad especially for its age. Metal hoops and hardware have some pitting and overall minor rust. Chrome is flaking in spots. Hoops both have minor warps which mostly seem to be on the top lip. Should not affect its use. Throw off is 100% functioning. Does feel a little rigid. Muffler also works great. Interior and bearing edges are clean. Heads and wires show wear, but are playable. Heads are calfskin. Snare side head does have a little rip in it. Wires have some warping also. See the pictures for more details!
