Ted Reed's famous Gladstone snare drum from the Syncopation book cover

What ever happened to the snare drum featured on the cover of Ted Reed’s legendary book Syncopation for the Modern Drummer? It’s in Florida! In 2019 we tracked it down at State Theatre Antiques in Plant City, where drummer and collector Ken Canty shared the story of how he became the proud second owner of this iconic drum. Enjoy!
