Sunday CL SCORE! Last viewed: 1 day ago

Loading...

Well, didn't have my hopes up from the pictures from the ad, but I could tell the guy wanted to get rid of them and wasn't a drummer. Upon arrival, the "barn" was an old shop full of cars, mowers TV's, etc. Right to the drums. First I saw the Ludwig floor tom(not in pictures on CL add), then looked over and saw the rest.

Here's the score:

5x14 Rogers COB Dynasonic - mid 70's, frame is there, just needs heads and a good cleaning. Muffler present, a little rust, perhaps an 8 out of 10 when done.

The Ludwigs

20x14 BD, 12x8 Tom, 16x16 FT

Not sure what configuration, but the 12" is date stamped Sept. 8 1965(or 66). White interiors. Leg mounts there, all screws, tension washers top and bottom, both wood hoops and all claws hooks both sides, BD cymbal mount(no arm). Now the bad - no badges, shells are spray painted black w/ minor overspray inside shells. Tom mount replaced(same holes though). BD top ply is starting to delaminate. BD tom mount gone w/ 4 extra holes.

The Zildjians - 22" ride, 18" crash, hollow logo's underneath, 70's I guess, o cracks or keyholing.

There is a 70's Rogers pedal, and trashed hardware stands, as well as a 13" import tom, and a Tama Swingstar FT, and 1 Tama boom stand. Most of this is junk.

But for $300, I couldn't resist! The Dyna is worth almost that.

I'm not sure what to do about the delamination of the shell, but I think it's fixable. I can strip the shells, no problem.

So, it looks like I have a project on my hands. Any input on the kit is appreciated. Looks like I'd need a BD tom mount, (3) Keystone badges/grommets, a tom mount, cymbal arm for the BD, and a lot of work. Once done though, I think a nice mid 60's Ludwig kit!

Pics coming!

Ah, yes, now I remember, especially the 22 was tempting. Looks like you talked him down good as well. Congrats, and happy restoring. You cant score a Rogers boxed kit every time, now can you?

So far, I have been unable to find a Ludwig Super Classic outfit offered in the 20, 12, 16 configuration???

The Dyna is cleaning up nicely with new heads and snare wires on the way. Rogers chrome was just so good, even into the 70's(wish Gretsch chrome stood up this long...just sayin').

I'm sending the shells off to Precision for fixture of the lifting on the BD and wrapping I'm OBP. Meanwhile, anyone want to lend a hand in chrome cleaning?

Pics coming soon....
