Default Advice needed on Trixon Drums
Hello,

Not sure if this is the correct place to post this,

I have got a Trixon Kit that we brought a few years ago second hand, its got some wear and tear but nothing major. It also has practice skins on.

Any advice on age or value would be much appreciated?

See Pictures

Many thanks

Right idea!, but slightly wrong forum. I moved your post into Vintage Non USA Drums ... as these being Trixon .. well .. they're German!

Snare looks like a Beverley Cosmic 21 in stead of a Trixon.
The cosmic is one of the many answers to Ludwig Supraphonics, but somehow underrated.

Thank you all very much for your help!!

I am looking to sell this kit so would anyone be able to let me know what the value is?

For the Kit and the snare or the two separately?

Bare in mind it isn't in the best condition and would perhaps be best for someone looking to renovate a kit?

Many thanks

Nathan

Nathan,


As a Trixon owner myself, I regularly scan ebay and CL to see whats for sale and how much.

Based on the Condition and the fact that you dont have the matching Trixon snare drum, my feeling is that youre looking at around $450- $500
for this set.
