15" New Beat age?

Loading...

Hi folks, I picked up a pair of 15" New Beats today and the seller wasn't sure if they were 60's or 70's. To me the stamp doesn't look like a 70's thin so maybe 60's??? Would love to hear what the experts think. Thanks!

Curious what the weights are (and yes, look like 60's to me too)?

I only have a crude kitchen scale but the top looks like about 1080g and the bottom is about 1580g. About medium weight? They sound really nice and for $155 I thought it was a good deal. Never had 15's so it's a little strange hearing such a different tone coming from my hats. I think I can get used to it though! Thanks for helping me figure these guys out better.
