Thank y
Thank you for pointing this out. I looked at the muffler that came with the kit and it is like the one on your beautiful trans badge kit which makes sense to me. This muffler is supposed to go on the 16" floor tom, the 13 did not have one. Since I really don't use mufflers on toms and I did recover the 16 with new veneer I have the option to use the one I have on the snare drum. I just hate to drill this drum though, I will likely use the snare without it (and not drill the 16) for awhile and see how it goes. Push comes to shove I have a muffler I can use. Thanks again!Maybe someone more knowledgeable than myself will be able to chime in, but the first photo (gold sparkle) is from a pre-serial badge 12"x 16" tenor drum. The second photo is from my black trans badge kit. Both toms and the snare have this type of muffler. I'm not entirely sure when Ludwig switched or if they used these mufflers both at the same time.
