66/67 downbeat with canister

once the brass ceases to glitter, and the drum looses its luster, and the stage remains dark, all you have left is the timbre of family.

Heck, kits from the late 70s aren't even "vintage". And no, Mr. Craigslistadposter, there's no such thing as a vintage Tama or CB drum kit, no matter how many people on craigslist list them...

No kidding!!!!

I bought what would be called on craigslist an "old vintage Tama Rockstar kit" today!!!

Yeah- I'm THAT guy!!!

Early '90s is NOT vintage!!!! It's just old and outdated!!!!

Lets make a deal here! If they are quality brands produced in the country of origin, they are not old and outdated but a fine add to drum-history ;)

And by the time i'm 60, they'll be damn vintage!! (in 40 years that is lol)

I do think that like student drums from Slingerland back in the day and the Acrolite snares of yesteryear, Ludwig Rockers from the '80s that were made in USA will end up vintage. There are certainly enough torn up shells that an original and intact kit will probably fetch real money.

It would be an executeable offense if you advertise the following on Craigslist:1) Use the word "Symbol" or "Cymbol" to describe a cymbal.2) Count the cymbals, stands, and the throne in how many piece drum kit you have.3) Use the term "ready to play, just needs new heads" in an ad.4) Try to sell your POS, Made in China drum kit for more than the MSRP.5) Try and sell a POS student kit on Craigslist after you had rattlebombed it to death with horrid colours and try to pass it off as some great artist's drum kit.Method of execution: honey would be poured upon a naked body and army ants set free to feast upon said body whilst still alive!!!

and they have to listen to New Kids on the Block albums in succession...

We could add that.

Now remember- a person who is selling a "base" drum is subjected to a drum student trying to learn Barry Manilow tunes on drums. Maybe we could add listening to Michael Bolton.
