Bolero (Stainless Steel Drums) ..?

Loading...

Truly an amazing and intriguing find! Congratulations!

I'm confused by the pics of the bearing edges - are they stepped/rolled?

These are really cool, especially with the snare. I'd like to get a SS kit someday. I made an effort to bring a Sonor SS kit to the US earlier in the year. This has inspired me to pursue it again.

The edges look like a very tightly rolled edge. I think Ludwig used a 45 flange.

What is your opinion of the sound of these, head choices, etc...

Congrats, Gary.
