In this interview, Gary shares his latest acquisitions; two replicas of the 1928 Ludwig Gold Triumphal snare drums. (There are only seven original ones accounted for, according to the Curotto Collection.) With a hand-engraved 24-karat-gold-plated brass shell, this 100th Anniversary snare drum retails for $10,900.

Do they make one without the 24K Gold and the engraving? how much does the less expensive model cost?

Just imagine actually having one of those things... First, you would be broke, and ya couldn't do a gig with it cuz you'd be too worried about it getting stolen. And god forbid that shiny golden shell got a scratch XD

Such a beautiful drum though.
