Congrats on getting that snare! I had a snare drum failure (story for another day) and my b/u snare was not appropriate for the impending gig. Popped onto to Craig's List and found a 1970 vintage Acrolite. The second I used it remember exactly what I love about them.... they have the exact right amount of dryness to the sound. It is now my main snare! I replaced the original wires and threw a coated ambassador on the top.Well, this isn't a purchase, but it's my latest acquisition: first Acrolite I've had my mitts on since high school in the late 80s, in a student kit gifted to me yesterday. Needs a little TLC but sounds pretty good today. Needs new snare wires, some soapy water & aluminum foil to remove rust & chrome pitting on the rims, and the muffler felt needs to be re-glued.

Should I sell it to a metal player, based on the serial number?

Do I need any particular glue to repair this, or will typical super glue suffice?

No matter how I wedge this section of the stand in its place, this corner of the... center plate (?) sticks up above the platform in the case where the drum rests. Is this normal? Am I doing it wrong?

Fabric adhesive would work best. The super glue may react poorly with the felt over time.Do I need any particular glue to repair this, or will typical super glue suffice?
That's a real looker too. Sweet!I just bought a 2nd hand, Mapex black panther solid steel 3mm snare, with top and bottom 5mm control rings.
All in it's original case, with all the accessories, i.e drum key, cloth bag etc.
In really good condition for its age (2007) as only 300 were made worldwide, and about 60 were available here in the UK.
I saw that.Looks like the batter hoop is reversed 180 degrees, but nice find and great price!
