So that's what they looked like. This is what they became. The kent was originally a single lug design, I drilled the holes to make it top and bottom lugs. I had some spare lugs sitting around that closely resemble the Yamaha lugs. Some point I'll track down a lone Yamaha tom, but not in any way a priority as the drums sound great. Kept the original Kent mount on the tom.

I saved all the excess pieces of drum wrap that were left under the lugs and mounts ( yea they literally cut everything else off ) and the bass drum and tom had what looked like a tiger stripe finish. The MIJ tom was a WMP. Absolutely a players kit, but that's fine with me.

Very nice . I've never met a Yamaha drum I didn't like or love .
