Hi guys,

Just need advice in term of Market value...
I own some snares and a particulary beautiful PREMIER Signia Marquis 14X5.5, hand made in UK (Laminated US Maple).

Someone wants to trade me that snare for a Ludwig LB 552K Hammered Bronze Supraphonic... I'm hesitating.. could you help please ?


Ludwig LB 552K Hammered Bronze Supraphonic


VERSUS :

Premier Signia Marquis Maple
 
Wow, tough call. It is too bad you could not trade with the option of switching back in case neither one of you likes the difference. Price wise I could not tell you but changing to the Ludwig might be a nice change for you. Sorry I was not much help.
 
I could only speculate on the Premier snare,but the Ludwig bronze supras have been going up in value in the past couple of years ,depending on model by as much as double.The average price is even with Black Beautys.

Do a search of COMPLETED auction sales on Ebay to get an accurate market value.People can ask all the want for a given drum.It's what it ACTUALLY sells for that's important.

My opinion is the Ludwigs just seem to go up in value,or hold their value better as as good as any drums out there.
