Used Piccolo

Letting a few rare gems go. Japanese drum building and design at its very best. The Sakae-era snares are legendary. This brass piccolo is no exception. This is the original 80s version. Favored by Yamaha artist and studio engineers alike. Fantastic sounding snd easily playable snare. But, you know that already. This drum was a live and studio workhorse snare. It was well cared for and is still in very good used condition for the most part. Strainer and adjustable butt function smoothly and used Evans heads tune up with ease. Original Power Hoops are solid Additionally, original wires were replaced with 80s Pearl Free Floating extended wires. They lay perfectly flat. Edges are clean and integrity of the shell is excellent. Drum was used a lot, but still sounds, feels and records great! This is a players drum. Upon close inspection, youll find scratches, fingerprints, smudges and oxidation marks on the brass shell and lugs. Lugs are slightly bowed – still solid and hold tension perfectly. Very common with these lugs. Plenty of scratches and dings on the hoops and strainer. Drum is complete, except for one missing outer spacer-bar from the strainer. The bar on the butt side is present. The missing bar has no effect on the performance of the strainer. It just serves as a spacer for the tightening bolts of the wires level rod. Excellent rare find for the player. Drum weighs roughly 9#s. There are more photos of this drum available to view on my Reverb Shop page. Tracking will be provided, as well.
