VINTAGE CARLTON "CRACKER" 14"x 3" SNARE DRUM
An excellent example of a drum that often gets overlooked by players/collectors- dating back to the 30s , Carlton drums were favourites of English drummers in the Danceband Era. The drum featured many innovations such as a parallel action snare release with a lever that can could be moved with the sticks while playing. With its die-cast hoops and shallow depth, the drum has a crack and responsiveness that can still hold its own in todays musical world. Superb condition- the drum is all original and in full working order.
