thanks chris.

the snare is only for recording so I dont really mind:

A- What it looks like
B- What its made of.

It just has to sound great.

Maybe a 6.5'' might be an option, so far I've been thinking only about the 5''. Care to comment on how the 6.5'' differs tonally?

One other question I had was with regards to bubbling in the alloy: if this starts to happen (as I suppose it will in a drum as old as the 60's), should I only expect it to get imminently worse, or is this par for the course in a drum that old? Just thinking about how the condition of the drum will be once I've had it several years.

Many thanks,

J
