Condition

Good condition overall with noticeable cosmetic wear typical of a well-used working snare.

- The chrome shell shows scattered pitting, spotting, and oxidation throughout, especially visible in certain lighting. This is common with mirror chrome finishes over time and does not affect the sound or structural integrity.

- Some light rust is present on tension rods and small hardware components.

- General surface scratches and handling marks across the shell and hoops.

- Heads show wear from use and may need replacement depending on player preference.

- Hardware is fully functional, and the drum tunes and plays as it should.

This is a solid, player-grade snare with cosmetic wear that reflects use but still delivers the classic bright steel snare tone.
