Hi, A friend just picked these up off of c/l for me and emailed me the photos..He only paid 50.00 for the set..To me it looks 60s japanese made?? or what..Mikey
What Is It??
vvverrry hard to tell from those photo's. from the looks of the inside of the one shell it could def be luan and most probably MIJ. Not sure about that wrap at all, not even sure if I like it at all, just looks a bit too much like gift paper.
Whatever it is, for 50 bucks its a great deal and bound to be good fun, make a nice players project kit. take some close ups of the shells and lugs when you get it.
congrats man, nice friend you have by the sounds of things...

It is hard to see...the lugs look sort of Apollo-esque, which would be older Japanese...but the shell interior of that bass drum is blonde-ish, indicating perhaps a layer of maple or birch and maybe a more recent drum than that (like 80's) ?
