1956 WFL Drum Set

Red Sparkling Pearl. The pic doesn't do the finish justice. There is absolutely ZERO fade on this baby. And she's about 98% all original.

Enjoy.

Thanks for the kind words!

My wife is a PhotoShop genius and has designed a couple of bass drum heads for me. The general idea for WFL head below was taken from a design she made for me a couple of months ago for a B/O badge kit. She tried to match the red as best she could to the kit; the blue came from a hi res sample of her Lake Placid Blue Telecaster. The .psd of the WFL Keystone logo was sent to me by member over at DFO. The head was printed by DrumArt.com.

It's just your basic 13/16/22 config with a 5.5x14 snare. I think the white reso head make it look a little bigger, even in person.
