I've been offered a trade for these drums, 70's 5-ply Maple. Are they any good? I'd be learning after a 25+ year hiatus (and I stunk back then). But I don't need a headache scenario. And about what are they worth? He says one of the toms is no longer... Appreciate it.

SWEET!!!! I love the wrap on that kit.
It almost looks to be a Slingy kit with Luddy mounts tacked on. Value would depend on which tom "is no more". If it's the floor tom....ouch. If it's one of the wing toms, it would depend on which are remaining. Point is, if the 13 is missing, you would be jumping from 12,14,16....not the most optimum arrangement. Just a thought.
Looks more like 10, 12, 13, 16 IMO
I looked at the email. Its the small one, there IS a 12 and 13". Is it worth around $600-700? Thanks
Is the snare included? How about cymbals and hardware? If you can get it ready to play than I think that price would be worth it.
This is from the "other" thread pertaining to this kit. Just wanted to make sure it stuck.
Could you please pass the contact info to us? I would be interested in this kit...as I'm sure there are others here, too. Nice nice nice drums. Granted the 5 ply sounds a bit stiffer than the 3 ply, but dang! Those are sweet drums. Yes, he has them overpriced. Yes, the Luddy mounts drag the price down even more. But there's gotta be some middle ground, don't ya think?
you don't need to pass the contact if you don't want. At least not until your sure you don't want it.
Amen and agree.
