Gary I hope you can get this squared away with the seller. Bummer! And yes, you should have asked for some local help, like you did for me. Helps to prevent getting burned. So sorry to hear this, I know you were excited about the drum.

John

Really too bad. It happens sometimes, & always sucks when it does. Sorry for you.....marko

MIKEY no one put together a drum clean as you do, i have to say if all your drums are like that acro i got from you through john those are righteous drums they need nothing ....oh well such is life at least the wrap is very nice i better try to sleep 4;30 comes early thanks guys thats life

thanks gary. I love detaling them and bringing them back to life...I also try to explain the drum well and cover every base that I can so that there will be no surprises with the buyer. hope that you can get your issues resolved..

mike

Sorry t hear it Gary, hope you can resolve the issues.

i messaged him and im being ignored

Stinks Gary. But I gotta say I was watching that snare on ebay, too, then bammo: gone. Sooooo many times its the same story w/ vintage gear on ebay ... bids ratcheting up then some cat contacts seller outside of ebay & auctions over. Live by the sword die by the sword!

All the griping about"feebay" - well, when you buy off it you're covered when some a$$hole knowingly screws you

That's why I try to deal w/ people who are known to be stellar and do NOT play effing games. Hope you find the replacement parts. Wrap, obviously, is about the most important factor vintagewise. Looked nice.

Ciao - Chris

Thanks guys I'm dealing with seller said it played fine he was playing it yeh sure in his dreams oh we'll move on next maybe it was dropped by shipper that would explains the jamming of the throw or the rim but that would not explain the twisted sister wires
