Hello, does anyone know where all those cheap Japanese thrones came from in the 60's? Who made them? Is there any demand for them in the vintage market or do I give it away with the next "entry level" drum set that I sell? Here is a pic of what I have...Thanks so much!
My best bet? They came from Japan... Eye Ball
Okay, smart a$$ answer out of my system.
Most of the vintage inexpensive thrones I've run across have been good for pictures and such, but not so much for sitting. I wouldn't use one, or give it away to be used frankly. The rolled metal tubing begins to fail at the bends and folds.
Maybe I have just gotten cruddy ones, but I wouldn't sit on them if they are like mine.
I've no idea if there is much demand for these in the market place... maybe, for the same reasons I have a couple... displays and pictures.
