Well, if it doesn't work out, I might throw my Leedy & Ludwig in the ring for consideration. :)

Great, drool-worthy kit, I've seen it! Just 'not quite enough' to tempt me to swap my BB for it. Almost though!

Thanks for the offer...

This is re-plated right? I know you say "finished", not sure if this means restored / refinished. Beautiful drum.

No, the drum is in all original condition. I haven't done anything to it other than clean it up and swap out the clips and snares so I can play it. I have all the original parts. Nothing missing, no extra holes or other dookies. The drum is in sweet condition for something this old. If it was for sale at Maxwells in New York, an old 1923 wave pattern 5x14 with Pat. Pending strainer would have a price tag of, $3200 to $3500.

I don't see the deal as being fair unless Purdie supplies ear protection for Drum Bug. That snare is going to provide one heck of a rim shot! A real blast from the past. Back side is, there may not be many kits whose sounds beats a Camco Oaklawn, and hopefully one in perfect blue moire. :2Cents: Like, WOW. Walking

John,

Let me know if you'd consider, I've always wanted a BB.

That's a Krupa kit, right? Man, it's a sweet one too. Thank you for the offer, but no thank you, I'll have to pass. Not quite what I was looking for. But damn tempting though!

John

Yes, it's the 1N ensemble.

Awe man! I really wanted that BB!
