big daddy!...

These were made by Meazzi in Italy. 60's vintage is correct. Meazzi is LONG out of business, but whenever one of these comes up, they always draw interest as they are just so... cool. I said it earlier, I'll say it again:

I want 'em!

I don't think they're for sale though as the poster, 123batterie never indicated as such. Regardless... Harrison, you would have to fight me for them! LOL!

Thanks for the info Tommy - Indeed, they look sweet. Just wondering what the "cool factor" is based on? Looking at the kit, I see a nice wrap, slick lugs, very cool bass drum claws and T-Rods, funky looking floor tom legs, etc...

What are the shells? Mahogany, maple???

How do they sound?

THanks again for all the info - I love learning something new about my favorite instrument!
