Tell her I'm offering $300 + shipping. If she goes for it, pm all her details and I'll have a Postal Money Order out to her tomorrow.

Serious offer.

Purdie Shuffle, I sent her a text with your offer.She was having to work a double today so I haven't been able to get her.I will probably hear from her this evening. Thanks.

Already spoke to her on the phone, all the arrangements have been made, transaction in progress!

Thank you, brother. Sweet drum at a fair price. Gotta love it.

John

Good deal my friend. I was hoping someone on this site would know something about it,I have never dealt with vintage drums.Hope you enjoy it.If I find anything else along those lines I will post it on here.

You da man, Fly! That drum will be going with my 59 transition badge kit! Perfect fit for it too! I'm psyched to get it.

Thanks again, brother.

John

I'm going to enjoy it.

Drum arrives Tuesday! I ordered new heads two days ago, (REMO coated Ambassador batter, Evans Hazy 300 snare side,) so everything should hit the door at about the same time.

Nice purchase!
