Dan - how about a little history! Did you just acquire them? Have you had them a long time?

Great kit. Love the finish. How do they sound?

John

Too many great drums to list here!

History is that I acquired them in a trade/purchase from Bobby Chiasson at the Jollity Drum Farm in Argyle, NY. The photo is also to his credit. I've taken a few of the set too, but this one of his was too good to pass over for a gallery shot.

They sound very good though I've had little opportunity to play and experiment with them.

I wanted to include at least one set from each of the 60's era US manufacturers in my collection and this set is the one that occupies the Leedy slot. I, like a few of you, missed the silver sparkle Frank Capp set that was on eBay a while back. However, Bobby was kind enought to work something out for me with this one.

So kudos to Bobby on the photo and working with me to add this beauty to my corral.
