Hey people,

Recently acquired this snare (for free!) and was just wanting some help identifying it. I've narrowed the era down to the 80s because that's when Remo produced PTS (Pre-tuned heads) kits and snares, only for a couple of years though. I also wanted to know (Damo might be able to help) where I can get aforementioned PTS heads in Australia, or if there's somewhere abroad where I can order them. For something that's over 20 years old, it's in pretty good shape. You can see some shell discrepancies in places, and three of the staples that holds the tuning lugs in (pictured) are missing, but not a huge deal. Oh, it's a 14"x8" and sounds massive.

Here's some pictures, thanks!
