It was a privilege to rewrap this drum for Dan Nickel. It belonged to his brother-in-law before he passed, now Dan and his wife have inherited the whole kit. New blue pearl wrap, one new DW lug and air vent grommet, polished all chrome parts, reassembled and tuned. Ready to rock for another 25 years! Dan Nickel
