Looking for 2" metric? Tension Rods

Loading...

Yes, I have the whole set. The 20" bass, 14" floor tom, 12" ride tom, 14" snare. The pedal broke after a few years and I replaced it. Still have the hi-hat and the 3 cymbals. Both bottom rims from the toms were missing along with the tension rods.I found exact replacements for the rims, oddly enough, the floor tom took the standard tension rods, the ride tom used the metric smaller thread. I'm also missing 6 hammer-style bass drum tensioner rods, haven't been able to find those yet anywhere. I took the bottom heads off to make the drum sound more rock-and-rollish and they probably got tossed after I moved out.

I'll post a picture when I have it finished. I'm glad I found this forum!

Ha! They didn't even show the badges in the catalog pics! Gotta love it!And yes, they are Star. Cool set, are they the 12/14/20 sizes? and do you have all of the original parts?

Go to your local drum shop and get new inserts as well as rods, I promise you it will save MANY headaches in the days to come. Not worth "trying to keep it all original" as the rods you have are likely Star and irreplaceable, period. The inserts and rods will cost less than originals after you factor in shipping from an ebayer.

Why trade them out,you wil spend time on re-working the lugs being that the thin metric inserts holes on top of lug are small and you will have to file out the hole alittle to make the 12/24 inserts fit then you have to file the inside nut on the bottom 12/24 inserts to fit into the lug space...All this when i have original's??/ Mikey
