It literally took me two years to source all the shells and hardware for this kit.
These are 1960's Pearl and Whitehall MIJs with three ply shells with re-rings. They came off of three different drumsets all different colors of course. I reconditioned the bearing edges, used an attractive artificial stone paint for the interiors and cleaned up all the hardware. I also went to rim mounts for the rack toms. Boy what a difference that made. These drums sound better than either of my Slingerland sets. Oh I also took a 9X13 rack tom and converted it to a deep snare. Sounds sweet! And I built those octobans from scratch!
Now for the wrap, I had to custom design the wrap for each drum, if you look closely you will notice that the graphic size is keyed to the drum size so that it remains proportional to the size of each drum. That was some tricky photoshop work but it turned out nice. Then I had my friends at Bumwrap generate the wraps based on my Photoshop psd files. They do a good job and their price is about half what most drum wrap runs. Not bad for custom wraps.
