I have a 5mm Tama Bell Brass Replica, made by the well-respected John Holt at Duluth Brass. If you know anything about Bell Brass replicas, you understand that he was the OG for replica shells. Unfortunately, he does not manufacture the shells anymore.

The drum is 14 x 6.5'', 5mm thick bell brass (bronze) shell, clear Remo ambassador CS batter, and Remo hazy snare side.

I purchased the drum from the original owner. It comes fully "furnished", including the elusive built-in dampener. I installed NOS Tama 6035 wires on the drum. All of the hardware came from donor Tama Imperialstar Mastercraft drums (minus the badge). All of the hardware functions appropriately, including the snare mechanism, lugs, and dampener. However, the hardware was made in the 1980s, so you should expect some wearing as well as mild blemishes such as pitting and scratches. There's also a mild amount of patina around both shells. But overall, this is a KILLER drum.

I am only selling because I purchased the 50th anniversary Bell Brass.

If you have questions, please ask. I am asking $1800. The drum will come in the original crate packaging and that it ships in. CASH only and local pickup preferred.

Thanks for looking.
