Good Lord! THAT'S the kit I would have killed for in 1974-5. Wow! I am floored! What a great kit, man! Just beautiful!!!

Now that is a drummers dream.



And a Roadie's nightmare!

Thanks for the nice comments guys. In '75 when my hair was down the middle of my back, this was my dream set. It brings back a lot of great memories of my band covering all the big hits of the great bands of that era (Deep Purple, Doobie Bros, Zeppelin, Grand Funk Railroad, Edgar Winter, ELP, etc). But alas, the era of the monster sets has past, and because my wife and I moving to Florida and down-sizing, I'm forced to part this baby out (I know I could never sell this as a complete set).

It was nice to set it up in my basement one final time for this photo (I really wish Florida homes had basements). If anyone is looking for a particular piece to complete a kit, send me a PM. I think I'll sit behind it one last time and play Karn Evil 9 before breaking it down.

Just Wow! Surely you have played the "Hawaii 5-0" theme on them? I bought my four piece New England White Rogers kit in 1975, and I still have it too.

The highest point in Florida is 345 ft above sea level (and soon to be less than that) and the coastal soil is basically sand, so basements are very rare here.
When you do relocate to Florida make sure you are well away from any flood zones as defined by FEMA. The flood insurance is brutal if you house is not high enough.

Amazing, thanks for posting .. !!
