Premier Art Deco floor tom lugs - try again

Loading...

This is my second request. About 40 years ago, I bought a 50's Premier 4 piece drum set, then sold it to a friend about a year later. Several months ago my friend called me and said the Premier set was trashed with missing parts and heads. He wondered if I would trade with him for another drum set. I thought it might be fun to restore the old Premier set so I took him up on it. I restored and recovered the drums and sold the floor tom and the Royal Ace snare to two different drummers. A few weeks later the guy that bought the floor tom said he'd like to trade it back to me for some vintage hardware. So there I was with the Premier floor tom and a 12" side tom. I began looking for the first time at the striking Premier Art Deco lugs, and decided I really liked them. So I re-wrapped the floor tom and the side tom in turquoise sparkle, and special ordered heads for them from Remo. All cleaned up and restored, they looked and sounded great. But now I had a problem, I'd sold the Royal Ace snare. I approached the guy that bought it, but he loved it and didn't want to sell it back. He did like my Rogers 6.5" Big R snare drum, which I'd been saving till I got a Dynasonic frame and rim for it. So I traded him the Rogers for the Premier. Now I have my old Premier set back, but I'd like to get some Premier Art Deco floor tom lugs to put on a look-a-like 18" floor tom to complete the set. So if anyone has 16 Premier Art Deco floor tom lugs, I would like them.

Best with a picture. Someone may have some and not know what they are really.

I might have a couple, but am out of town until Nov 7. They were made with single mount screw and post, or 2 mounting screws. Do you have a preference?

Does the single mount screw model have the same spacing as the double screw model and do they look alike? If so, then it doesn't matter, but I need 16 of them. Let me know approximately how much.

Thanks,

Don

Spacing of the mount holes is the same. I will only have a couple, so keep looking for quantity. I found mine on ebay, some coming from England.
