Fixed up a Vintage 60's MIJ Kit

Posts: 268 Threads: 80

60's Marlin drums. Originally in blue sparkle but the wrap was beyond cleaning up.

Mostly in surprisingly good condition just needed cleaning and re-wrapping. I put all the metal parts in the dishwasher and then gave them a buffing with a well used microfibre cloth that already contains lots of chrome polish. Re-wrapped the shells in Walopus White Wedding Woodgrain

Beautiful job! With the right heads and tuning, these old MIJ's sound pretty darned good! Nice going!

Thanks Salty!

They do sound surprisingly good. I'm really liking the bass drum.
