I have been building a Wurlitzer 105 type band organ and it is essen-
tially complete except for the bass drum. The size of the bass drum
on the original band organs was approximately 20 inches diameter by
10 inches deep.
I have learned that, although that size was fairly common years ago,
it is not available today. A standard size for a new drum would be
22 inches in diameter, which is probably close enough, but the depth
is 15 inches.
I will probably end up buying one like that, removing a head and
cutting it down, but before I do that I thought I would check to see
if anyone on MMD knows where I might find one closer to the original
dimensions.
