1971 Ludwig Hollywood in Sky Blue Pearl

Loading...

i guess you guys have infected me with the bug. i was supposed to be saving for a keystone sparkle kit but these came up and the seller was motivated to a ridiculous degree so,luckily they came home with me.

from what i can tell they're 71's and in pretty good shape. 22,12,13,16 3 ply with rerings and clear interiors. the stickers are still there inside and the serials are all in the 84xxxx range.

there's a little seam lift here and there but everything seems to be in round with good edges. i spent all day cleaning what looked like bar funk off the hardware and have the requisite heads on the way so i'm chompin at the bit to play them.

if we ever get any more sun, i'll do my best to get some good outdoor shots of them now that they're clean and shiny.

66/67 downbeat with canister
Super 400 small round knob

once the brass ceases to glitter, and the drum looses its luster, and the stage remains dark, all you have left is the timbre of family.
