VINTAGE RARE PEARL STAR 13" X 9" TOM BLUE SPARKLE ORIGINAL HaRDWaRe JAPAN

Description

VINTAGE
BLUE SPARKLE
BLUE 13 INCH X 9 INCH TOM--EARLY 1960"S
STAR
THE MOUNTING POINT HAS "JAPAN" ON IT AND RESEARCH THROUGH "VINTAGE DRUMS" websites,SEEMS TO INDICATES IT IS A 60'S VERSION OF THE SLINGERLAND TYPE THAT WAS PRODUCED BY THE
STAR COMPANY
...LATER TO BECOME THE
pearl
BRAND. IF YOU KNOW DIFFERENT, GO BY WHAT YOU KNOW, ANY INFO WOULD BE GREAT. I DID AS MUCH RESEARCH AS I COULD.
PLEASE LOOK CLOSELY AT THE PICS...THERE IS NO BOTTOM RING AS they were used  FOR CONCERT TOM SO THERE IS NO CHROME RIM AND THERE IS SOME MARKS ON THE BOTTOM EDGE WITH A SMALL BLUE PIECE MISSING. I WOULD THINK A  RING WITH A BOTTOM SKIN WOULD HIDE THIS AND IT IN NO WAY SEEMS TO AFFECT THE GREAT SOUND..
NOTICE THE WOOD GRAIN INSIDE AS IT RUNS TOP TO BOTTOM. THIS IS WHAT INDICATES IT IS A STAR DRUM. OTHERS HAD THE WOOD GRAIN RUNNING AROUND THE DRUM. LATITUDINAL.
THE CHROME HAS BEEN POLISHED TO IT'S BEST THOUGH YOU MIGHT SEE A SLIGHT PITTING ON A COUPLE MOUNTING LUGS IF YOU LOOK AT THE LAST PIC VERY CLOSELY..IT IS NOT NOTICEABLE THAT MUCH AND THE ORIGINAL WING NUT HAS ONE TAB BROKEN OFF..SEE PIC.... I WILL INCLUDE THE EXTRA 6 TUNING LUGS FOR THE BOTTOM RING IF YOU FIND ONE AND NEED THEM, I DON'T HAVE THE BOTTOM RING.
A RARE VINTAGE PIECE
NO drum head.....SHELL ONLY
shell, top ring, all tuning lugs and mounting lug are included
