Hi All,
So I decided to order me a new Ludwig 402 COB snare drum. When I unpacked it i was a bit concerned at how the drum had been put together from the factory, the hoops were touching the shell on one side and you could see a gap between the hoop and the ring of the drum head on the other, so i thought I had better put a tape on the shell, now to the point of this post, the shell measures 1/4" smaller across the 4 snare bed lugs than the rest of the shell, is this as should be???
