Mahogany -Spalted Ash Hybrid Snare

Putting the final touches on this snare. This is a 6.5 x 14. The shell is a single ply steambent from Vaughncraft  that is a spalted ash - mahogany hybrid, with mahogany rerings. I cut the edges to be roundovers with a 45 degree inner cut. Decided to use black hardware on this since the last snare I built had black hardware and I liked the look of it. Nickleworks strainer (used but in good shape; reflected in the price of the snare).
