I have a set of 5 piece TAMA "mahogany" semi-gloss finish drums w/toning mufflers & Zildjian's that I bought new in 1981 from the basement of Wedgel's Pawn in Denver. They sat unplayed for 30+ years and now I am drumming again. Were these made in the 1970s? Are they vintage, or just "used" drums? How do you upload an image?
On ebay I see a lot of 70's/80's "cherry wine" high gloss finish for sale without the mufflers, which I believe are not quite the quality of the earlier version of natural wood finish.
Thank you,
Craig
