My R360 Restore Project

Posts: 136 Threads: 22

OK, about 20 + years ago I bought another cheap drum set (a used R360 w/non-matching snare) to play because I've always had a drum set to beat on since I've been 12 years old although I'm primary a guitar player. After many years of neglecting it and after finding a R360 matching snare I've decided to try to restore/clean it up. With my schedule it will be a long process, but for anyone interested here are the before pictures. Please note that when I bought it over 20 years ago I thought it was a "Gray Oyster Pearl" finish. It took me days on the internet and various drum sites to figure out that these drums never came with that wrap and after pulling a lug I found it to be a "Blue Strata Pearl". The fade must of happened in the first 20 years of it's life.

Should be a fun experience and I thank you all in advance for your help ;-)

Have fun with the restoration, should look awesome when it's done. I'd love to see some larger photos of the set as is.
