As said in the Asba topic , here's more on my Pearl 1966 WMP kit .
I bought the kit last july for 150,- euro's (approx. 170 usd ) from an older drummer in his 80's .
The story goes that this would be the very first Pearl kit being sold in belgium . Even before these were availlale in the shops . His father , also a drummer , knew the distributor of Pearl in belgium . It was his first drum kit after doing his military duty at the age of 18 . He used it all his live until i bought it last month .
The kit has seen several modification throughout the years . The original WMP wrap is still in very good condition and has "aged" nicely .
I bought the kit to be used in our next musical , on stage , june 2016 .
As we will have a live band ( drums , upright bass , piano and maybe some horns ) and the play will be something Andrew Sister like , i wanted the drum kit to fit the stage setting .
Pictures are taken with my phone , so not really good quality .
