Re: [RopeDrums] Re: Re; Gettysburg Eagle Drum

Ellis;
 
It will be interesting to hear a review on the Gburg Drum.  I liked the drum and would have gone for the risk likewise.  I'm glad to hear your the owner and I'm sure it will be nice to have with your collection. Anxiously waiting for your review.
 
Regards, Bob

Dear Bob,

I am waiting for delivery. It did not sell (the seller pulled it from
sale). I offered $350 which was accepted.

More extensive photos will be posted when I receive the drum.

Also, I am gratified to see that the photos are generating discussion
within the group. It would be nice to see others posting photos of
their work and their drums so that we can all learn from that
information.

Best.

Another maker of drums is reproducing this strainer. It has a longer adjustment screw and brass attachment screws, however. ...
