Hi All,
heres a shot from the original trixon catalogue, but only of the Luxus..
Such style and taste- why can't they make em like this today?
OsakaBop many thanks,,yes you are right mate,,the vox drums were made by trixon and only for one and a half years from 67-68..
Cool1
What does a kick sound like on a Trixon Telestar set? Also, how do you get replacement heads or is it strictly for collecting? I used to like North drums. When I was a kid in the early 80's a few local music stores still had North drums. Somehow when you take a basic set of drums and you make it look off it makes it look really cool.
hi,
the kick sounds quite full and has a deep sound,the skins on the telstar are
16" and 20" bass and floor tom and very easy to get apart from a trixon logo bass drum front skin...nearly impossible !!!!!!
however the speedfire heads are a great deal hrder to get, the trixon website has a link but these are currently out of stock.
although the drum is rare and very collectable i have gigged it sounds fab all miked up and it has gone down very well..also it is great to be behind such an unusual bass drum !!
Keep on Pl

Hey Diamond,Yes i have seen the heads in the pass.About 15 years at Remo in Hollywood,ca when i was picking up a big order of head's i got to go into the back room.The room was full of N.O.S. heads off size's that they had must have been 200 of these heads in white and clear...I wish i got some of them but i did not.I did get alot of 17" heads at that time.Don't know if they still even have them anymore...Mikey
Cheers Mikey, its been getting a lot of attention in the U.K. and that comment has been said a few times now regarding the unusual front skin and the rarity!!
Just been added onto the Trixon website also!!
Thanks again for the info
Please take a pic with the smaller bass drum to the other side, I think that it would look even cooler...as it is, that looks really sweet!
