First of all, let me introduce myself. Ed is my name.
I am a new member with zero forum skills and hoping to find some answers about a recent obtained kit that I have trouble identifying.
Let me dscribe it. (some pictures attached)
Base drum is about 18" and has long ludwig style lugs and has rods that end in an old style wing nut. Wooden hoop. Covered in cheap white plastic with a blue paint coat underneath and finaly a beautifull golden sparcle wrap that I assume is the origional. Also a floor tom that has lugs in the same style but are single ended. Hoop is a steel or chrome over brass ribbon like structure and the rods have hooks at the end that grasp over the hoop. Also plastic and paint covering golden sparcle wrap. Same for a single tom. (same lugs, rods and hoop) Snare has 8 lugs, same hoops and sparcle finisch. This one has no paint under the plastic white wrap so this was easy to 'unveil'. In the procces is dissasabled the lugs to check them out. They seem casted and the material is fairly thick and heavy. no markings inside that help me to ID this. Inside of the snare shell (whatlooks like good quality) is a silvery colored thin coating. All lugs have a kind of treathed insert like if a nut is added to fitt a different size rod.
It had some tom supports on it that might be from a other kit and have 'japan' markings. Came with 4 pieces oldschool stands. (snare, hihat and two symbal stands
Anyone an idea of what kind of brand this might be?
Thank you.
Kind regards,
Ed
