Ok I will play.

Here is my Franken kit.

6.5 x 15 1920's ludwig brass snare

26 x 14 Gretsch 1940's bass drum in WMP (Was painted black when I found it)

10 x 14 WFL 1950's tom natural. I wrapped in Blue Marine pearl.

16 x 16 Slingerland 1930's radio king (also painted black when I found it) original WMP was quite the mess so wrapped in Peacock.

16 x 18 Rogers 1960's floor tom (also, you got it, painted black when found)

It is now my DO NOT "paint it black" kit. It spans from 1920's to the 60's.

Fun kit to put all together and more fun to play. (wasn't fun taking off black paint.)

Floor tom looks cool, let me know if you are looking to get rid of it!!

Have some stuff for trade also

I mixed my blue and black drums for one gig. It was pretty cool since it’s black n blue. I wanted/needed a compact kit but since this was an open situation I needed to provide something more diverse than a 4-piece kit.

18” kick black

10” Tom Black

12” Tom blue

14” ft black

16” ft blue

14” Montineri main snare blue

13” Yamaha oak side snare black.

No current Frankenstein kits. Had enough of that in my youth.

Here's my old pearl/maxwin/CB700 that I eventually wrapped in contact paper.

In the background is my brothers Star/Stewart.

The second pic is my brother playing that kit.

Ah, yes Clubdate... Banished to the basement with loads of "soft crap" on every surface...

That never really changes- still in the basement but my Drumgeon (tm) is a bit more refined now.

12x17 Ludwig gold sparkle Transition badge tenor tom for a bass drum. 12x15 Ludwig mid 60's tri colored tenor tom as floor tom. Early 40's Ludwig green sparkle 9x13 ride tom. '69 6.5x14 red sparkle Symphonic snare when i want a "matching snare". Trans badge Super for a metal snare. One of my favorite kits.

Piecing together a “birth year” kit from 1962. The kick drum is date stamped the day after I was born, the tom 3 days after. If anyone has ‘62 floor tom let me know.

Very impressive....Love it.

Here's a orphan Franken kit

12x20 Ludwig Pre serial VIRGIN (yes thats all correct) WMP all original BD

8x12 Leedy tom in starlight sparkle

16x16 Ludwig pre serial Galaxy floor tom

1959 5.5x14 Leedy Reliance snare

I put this kit together as a joke & now I love it!

the tom came with my incredible 1958 Leedy Shelly Manne set from Steve Maxwell. The FT came with a Galaxy Club Date kit I actually found the matching FT for! so I added this 16" to my already incredible Pre serial Super Classic kit so now I have 2 when needed. And that snare came from a collector friend & I just had to have it. I have not gigged with this kit yet but thats a comin..:)
