Hollywood by Meazzi

Posts: 442 Threads: 102

I just purchased a Hollywood by MEAZZI drumkit today.... the one on wheels. I got it at a fleamarket together with some old Paiste Stambul, Tosco and Zanchi Cymbals... and all that for an unbelievable price (100 Euros) :Santa: Walking

I will have to clean it and check if all the Parts are there. As i have never had one like this before, any help and advice is highly appreciated...

I'll post pics soon......

I almost had one of those about a year back. The seller refused to sell them for the price I won the auction for, so it didn't happen. They are really cool and really different. Congratulations on your new kit!

Thanks for the words guys...

I attached some pics of the kit as i got it today...

there is a crack in the wrap of the bass drum. any i deas how to fix that? just use some glue?

The wrap of the Floor tom is pretty worn. I see what i can to with some NOVUS....

The 1st tome looks ok, although all the HW needs a lot of elbow grease. I keep adding pics as i go along....

any comments on the pics are highly appreciated....

BIG TIME SCORE!

the part on the bottom of the tom mount on the BD doesn't look right...........I would take that off..........but,who knows?

Lets see what others say...........

Can't wait to see them cleaned up!

PS......I have a metal Meazzi 8 lug President snare FS! $350 plus ship.

Yeah... some parts don't look right and quite a few are missing.

I found out, that all missing parts are really rare... so i guess i'll clean and put together what i have, and just enjoy :-)

thanks for the Snare offer, but i already have too many :-) mainly Ludwigs... might fit as well... ;-)

I have already started cleaning the 13". some scratches will be left, but it looks nice (i used NOVUS 2+1 polish). HW has some pitting... i'll post pics once it'S finished..

Any head suggestions? i was thinking Remo Ambassador coated as batter, and clear Diplomats as Resonant on toms, not sure about the kick batter though...
