This is crazy, I have a COF Fibes kit in my car right now I sold on C list, the guy is coming over to pick it up in 2 hours. Its 22/ 13//14/16 I had an 18" floor tom I actually got $400 for it!!!! I sold this kit for $500. Love the sound. just needed to down size a little. I feel I could have gotten more for it if it had original tom mounts, however the pearl ones are rock solid, not like the flimsy factory ones. Hey Dolfan, I cant tell in the pick but your second picture looks like yamaha mounts correct?

Lots of Slingerland drums

The tom mounts are fibes but the mount on the bass drum is Ludwig. I have since gone to a single ball Gibralter post, works really well and looks much better than the double tom post in the pic.
