Is this really hand signed by Carl Palmer?

Mine was hand-signed. I didn't try and compare it to any other CP signatures, but I trust Ludwig that it was Carl's signature. BTW, this is a really nice share if you are looking for a 14" that you can crank. It's quite a heavy snare, and the diecast hoops are beefy. One disappointment is the throw off. It has a very limited amount of travel, making it hard to "dial in" the right amount of snare response. I remedied this by replacing the butt plate with a DW 3-position. Now, I have the options I was looking for.
