Nice looking kit.

Heads on the toms look unplayed.Are they original to the kit?

Thanks, Stevo

Yes, and they were filthy when I got them.

I spent about an hour on each one with a green scrubby and isopropyl alcohol. Worked pretty good !

Thanks again, and Happy Holidays !!

Wow, that looks like my first real kit ! Mine was a 68 blue agate which I sold to a young lad. Wish I would have kept it, but back then I didn't have the room for two sets.

And now I have an MIJ copy of this kit...snare and all. How funny is that?...The stands on mine are Ludwig Spur Loc 1124 hihat, and some early 60s Ludwig flat base straight stand and snare stand. Look at how well the snare copies the RK....

I even bought the WMP shells from OP....we are a sick bunch.....

BTW, those are sweet looking drums you have there. The hoop on my bass will likely be up for sale soon, as I am going to put new hoops both sides with birds eye or burl maple trim on them. You have first dibs on it. We could work out a trade....
