11 years agoLudwig Hammered bronze with WRONG Snarebed
I am not surprised, but I am disappointed. They had a chance to go the extra mile and "man up". They did not. To me this is not a question of liabilit...

Looks like a Slingy "Set-O-Matic" and spur mount went there. A friend has fashioned stainless delete plates for my Tama Superstar and Pearl Export set...
11 years agoroyce drums
I have seen MIT's in poplar or basswood, but never maple. And I've seen wristwatch-lug CB's with 10-lug bass drums. Royce Pro-Cussion is later product...

11 years agoWhat kind of kit is this, like a CB?

11 years agoQuestion about Luxor Made in Japan?
I'm guessing late 70's Hoshino, by the lugs and spur mounts. I've never seen that wrap on pre-70's stuff, and no rerings. If they are Hoshino, be care...
