Just the shells?

would you sell the 12" ans 16" separatly?

Btw, I do have a fibes fivel kit with a 20" bass.. very rare, havent seen any of those before I bought mine.. they are fuzzy and orange.. I would love to find more drums with the fivel finnish but I havent seen many of those..

How long have you had them? I got poached trying to buy a 20 bd orange set off ebay about a year ago. My own fault though - I had a chance but blew the BIN. Pity, would have loved em. Let me know if you ever want to sell!!!

I ended up buying a 57 red sparkle round badge kit instead I love it but I have to baby it more than I intended. I wanted that fivel kit to gig the hell out of and share with someone in my studio. The RB's hardly leave my bedroom which is a pity.

Enjoy!

I bought the orange fivel kit from ebay this summer.. I think the same kit was for sale about a year ago aswell.. It was a cool kit but I had to sell it due to some economic challenges I was facing..

I kinda regret it, but I'll get ahold of another fivel kit some day.. If that kit was 20, 12, 14 or at least 20, 12, 16 I would never have sold it but 20, 13, 16 wasnt the best set up imo..

OO! I think that's the set I saw, 13,16,20. Those sizes totally work for me! Damn, I would have bought it from you in a second! :-)

I ended buying a great RB kit which I love but it's really too nice to drag to clubs. That fivel kit is probably indestructible.

(if the dude who bought it off you isn't happy, send him my info!)

I'll probably regret selling it for the rest of my life..

They were easy to sell, alot of people were interested in them.. Hopefully I'll find another fivel kit some day.. I wonder how rare they are? I havent seen many, but I have only been looking at ebay (not craigs list) for about a year or two and Ive seen a couple of chromewrapped 20"-ers and that orange one I bought + a couple of other fivel items..

LOL. We've all been there.

Not sure why they're currently considered collectible. I wanted them because I think they're the ugly duckling and wanted something odd for an unusual band. And I needed a really durable set that I wouldn't mind sharing on gigs or my practice space. They'd fit the bill well.

Oh well. I hope you at least turned them over for a bit of profit.

Now if I could only convince people how collectible my butcher block ludwigs are!
