Oh yeah forgot to mention that floor is a 14x16 deep which I believe is unique to W&A sets.

There's a W&A set for sale around here on CL. It's also a mutt kit, a five piece in rock sizes, and I would love to nab it. The finish is Ludwig's Red Strata. They look great. The guy has been trying for what seems like a year to sell them, with no luck. He dropped his price $400 and then it disappeared and came back, and he raised the price back up. I guess he decided he wasn't going to give them away. The set supposedly belonged to his drum teacher, who ordered them directly from W&A.

A beautiful kit! I love W&A drums. Unique company and the way they approached drum building. Good luck with the kit

Beautiful kit! I have a Walberg Jasper snare in the collection that I absolutely love. I grew up very close to Worcester and really love the history of this great company. Congrats and enjoy!
