Kind of a letdown.....
They are branded Revere,but are clearly Kent drums.
Even the heads are Kent on all drums.....trashed,all of them though.
The 13" 2 ply has a pretty good factory gouge out of the top bearing edge,around 1" long,rendering it about useless.Buckling in the pearl too all around.Center lugs.
The 22" is a nice 6 ply,but only 6 lug,and it has center lugs ala Club Dates.
Both BD hoops were warped......Wish trash pickup was tomorrow,instead of 8 AM today.
The snare is pretty cool.Only 6 lugs,but no problems,except for a little buckling in the pearl.
The 16" FT turned out pretty good.Only 2 ply,but it's nice and thick,like a Gretsch 3 ply almost.Heavy.And the lugs are unlike any I have seen.
Japanese FT brackets on it. Short Slinger like legs.Rubber date stamp April of 68 or 69 inside.
There was a 2" long flat spot on the bearing edge top and bottom in the same spot,so they filled it in with some contact cement type glue,which I scraped off already.
For $60 to my door,I'm not complaining.......
It also came with a pair of 13" Zyn hi hats,and a very old British Olympic hi hat stand,a cheap MIJ cymbal stand,and a W and A foot pedal....exactly like the first pedal I ever got!Also, a very dented up MIJ 20" and a stray dented 13".
End of report.
