This was the November 2009 snare club drum. It has a 6-ply (7.5mm) birch shell with Superhoops, TB80 tube lugs, and SR017 throw off.

This was definitely a unique snare drum for Pearl. I used to love the Piano Black finish (until I finally got tired of trying to keep it clean). I'm completed converted to Matte Black now.

I need to get them outside for some photos.

I've been playing the little MCT "Martini" sparkle kit all summer.

I just spoke with Tom Storch about getting a 15x10 "floor snare" done with my next MW order.

While I think they are cool, I don't really collect vintage stuff, and I already have 2 402s. I'll pass on your offer, but I have a couple buddies that are into vintage that I could give the information to if you want to PM me pics and price.
