Here after long last is a shot of my Fibes mixed era acrylic clear 18/14/12 kit.
I slowly pieced this together from auctions and then had to wait about a year to actually see and play it - as it was sitting back in the USA at my folks home in about 10 different boxes - waiting to be cleaned and assembled.
The "bass drum" is a Nazareth era 18x16 FT in A+ cond. I got two new maple hoops and swapped out the tension lug bolts for bass drum size ones.
I am using a small riser to avoid scratching it up on the floor. Notice the legs- I`m using TAMA cowbell holder clamp brackets and trick bass drum legs- solid as a rock. The original FT mounting brackets for legs are very narrow holes- no good for mounting in bass drum legs. I dig the look and the no need to drill.
The floor tom is 14x14 from the Corder era- came in quite dirty- after alot of washing it polished up sweetly.
The 12x8 tom is the modern era and pristine A+ cond.
I am loving EVANS glass hydraulic clear batters and clear G1 as reso- super controlled and yet powerful sounds.
Hope you dig. Looking forward to playing them around Japan coming up.
