LP traditional crown size

Postby Tonio » Mon Aug 17, 2009 2:03 am

Could someone please measure their LP traditional crown size : quinto , segun tumba.
Is it Q12.5, c13, T14 ID(inside dimension)?

Trying to compare with some Valje's

Thanks

Here's what I have for outside diameter:

Quinto - 12 7/8"
Conga - 13 3/8"
Tumba - 14 1/8"

Each crown is just over 1/8th" and just under 3/16th" thick.

Thanks Mike.

They are a tid bit off than what I have , especiallky the quinto , segun. I think the difference may be that I am measuring underneath the comfort curve 1 or 2 and comparing to LP Valje's.

Are yours new / old or retrofits?

Thanks
