NEW Brady She Oak Snare Drum 8 x14 satin finish Help my daughter fight Spinal Muscular Atrophy Start Price USD 699.00 Current Price USD 860.00 Time Left - Bid Count 12 Buy It Now Price - Reserve Price - Start Time Wednesday, August 27, 2008 End Time Saturday, September 06, 2008 Location LeClaire, IA See more about 'NEW Brady She Oak Snare Drum 8 x14 satin finish ' Description I ended the last auction so I could use the upgraded ebay listing feature and put more and better pictures on, but I realized I deleted the pictures from the previous auction, so tomorrow I will put more on.  Sorry for any confusion.  Snare drum and extra heads still included.New, Brady 14x8 She Oak Block snare drum in satin finish with extra new in the box 14" Remo CS Black Dot Coated and New in the box 14" Remo Ambassador snare side heads.  I ordered this snare drum new directly from Kelly Brady and West Coast drums at the beginning of the year.  As you know, Chris Brady the original Brady is now back and running the company.  I was hired to do a month contract with a U2 Tribute band out of Chicago for the month of March.  I was required to have authentic gear just as Larry Mullen Jr is using, and Chris Brady personally hand selected this snare drum for my application.  So this was my chance to finally get a Brady!!  I also bought a 12x7 She Oak Block which is what Larry Mullen  used up until he switched to the 14x8 in 2005.  I had to hit the road and the 14x8 was still being made but I had the 12x7, so I got the 14x8 after I returned home and has never been used.  I fell in love with the 12x7,  it is exactly like ZooTV tour.  Anyway, got the 14x8 drum too late to use.  I had ordered new heads (never got around to putting them on) so the Brady heads would stay new and those are part of the deal too.  Brady does not give away their drums for endorsements, I paid full price for it via West Coast Drums.Shipping with insurance is $30. to lower 48 states only.  Email with any questions.  Check out my feedback if you have any concerns.Now, more reason why I need to sell the Ultimate in snare drums:In April my wife and I found out our youngest daughter has Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA) which basically means that her body does not produce a protein that feeds the nerve endings, and over time her muscles will atrophy.  She will never walk, because to date there is no treatment or cure for that matter.  She looks absolutely normal, breathtaking beautiful but just can't walk.  She gets stronger every day, but until the FDA approves Stem Cell transplants, she will not be able to walk with out some kind of device if at all.  I've included a link to her blog which has a link to the SMA family support group website for more info on SMA.  I could talk all day about SMA....  Anyway, so with that being said, I need to sell the 14x8 Brady snare drum.  All the money raised from selling the drum goes directly towards the purchase of a Standing Dani wheelchair to make her mobile.  Insurance does not cover these kind of things.  They cover a basic wheelchair, but for SMA kids, standing is best so that their bone density continues to build and also it pro-longs scoliosis of the spine.  They run around $14,000 so bid high for her!!  Here are some additional links: http://www.bradydrums.com.au/block.html http://www.bradydrums.com.au/larry-mullen-jr.html http://miracleformadi.blogspot.com/http://www.curesma.org/http://www.standingdani.com/products.shtmThank you for helping my daughter Madi and supporting her fight against SMA!
