they sound classy as well!
Won my auction for a 15x11 matching snare from '65.Cant wait to add it to the set.
Now I need a 12x? rack tom and 14x? floor tom to match and Im all set.

Lookin sharp! Nice work!
FINALLY!
Scored my 70s New Beat Hi Hats!
I've had good luck on ebay lately.
Hey Shawn..nice kit but its not a Downbeat.The Downbeat kit consisted of 20,12,14 and a 4x14 downbeat snare or a supraphonic snare.Check out the vintage drum guide .Good luck wth those beautiful Ludwigs and nice clean up.

Thanks Steve!
In regards the Downbeat issue thats what I've been told...oh well Im getting tired of chasing the name for these drums.
The before and after is amaising on this one.
6 houres to clean them? men, you are way faster than me.Toilet
I'm glad you found them ,and i'm sure they're very happy about that too...
When I inquired about them he told me:"A friend found them on the curb in downtown St. Louis about a year ago, Im not going to do anything with them, you want them?"
How come I never find any cool vintage kits sitting on the curb in downtown Vancouver? Maybe I'm just not looking hard enough? Maybe I need to travel to St. Louis?
Very nice job Shawn. The drums look GREAT!

Shawn - great job. Go ahead and give back the borrowed Slingys to their day job. You have your drums now baby.
