I need to change the snare side head on this early 60s Royal ACE and am not exactly sure how to remove/replace the snare wires. Anyone have any experience/know how with these flobeam critters?
oh i see. that sounds even more complex with 2 strands.
man that is a really nice wood snare, love the look of that warm maple under there (or what appears to be maple).

Owned a Super Ace and a Royal Ace over the last couple of years. The wires just clip in and out, very easily. 'Hook' on/off might be a more accurate term, in fact.
You should be able to loosen the wire tension with the throw of as normal, and then un-chook them from their position at either end. Rest of the head change proceeds as normal.
Peace
That's kinda what I figured after staring at it a while. Guess I'm just a bit nervous that I might not be able to clip the wires back on. BUT...nothing ventured...nothing gained. Thanks for the info.
