Posts: 1880 Threads: 292

No way am i thinking of buying this nice kit,(short on mula at the moment) but what say you guys about the price ? All original , including snare, pretty rare wrap, possible phenolic shells.. Price about right ?

I'm thinking no..

It's in a language that I don't speak... but I see $600. If that is American dollars, I would say too much.

It's Canadian $ so that's 472.01 US $ today.

It's in Cdn dollars, which is still too much..American would be about $520 more or less.. But i found another tiger eye pearl for sale with single tension lugs for $380 Cdn, which is more like it, and it comes with extras..Here's a link to the ad..Do you have any idea as to the brand ?..

They are Pearl-built drums.

Nice looking drums. But more a novelty than a durable drum kit to many collectors, I think. I personally don't think any MIJ is worth more than $350. Early Yamaha maybe a bit more ...?

I have the same kit as in the first pic in a 20-12-14-14 matching snare configuration. I love it but would not pay that much to replace it. The second kit is a much better deal with the hardware accompanying it but may not sound as good with the single lugs. Can you try it before you buy it?

Currently playing for loud rock and roll gigs:
1982 Ludwig Classic in white Cortex, 24-13-14-18 + Coliseum snare
For quieter gigs:
Early '70s Whitehall Tiger Eye Pearl 20-12-14-14
Neglected but thinking about:
Early '70s Sonor Champions in Rosewood, 22-12-13-16

Can't see any evidence of phenolic shells. My presidents have a square badge. Love that wrap, though!
