I got these Resonators from a add on CL three years ago. I think they had been in a barn. The guy even brought them by my house and I gave him $75 for them. At the time I had no clue what they were. Found out they were Premiers flagship kit. The very top of their line. Have to be early , mid 70's.They seem to be the very early Resonators. No R on the badge. I am thinking close to first edition. The kick spur's and mounts are heavy duty. Has the oblong Tom mount. 24" 13" 14" 16". I had to replace the Tom mounts on the 13" and 14". And found a hoop, claws, and gull wing rods for the bass drum. Still have a extra kick hoop. I removed the birch inserts to get to the lugs and hardware to clean them up. All original except the bottom hoops on the 13" and 16". They sound fantastic. As good as anything I own. I use them on Rock gigs a lot. Just a little to large of a set for small venues and stages. But I love them. I offered them up Earlier this year on CL for $800 to off set the cost of another kit I bought, and not one call. They have or had a set like this at Resurection Drums for $1200.00. I have decided to keep them. To nice and sound to darn good. I play them as 1 up 2 down. With the 24" kick the toms sit to high for my liking on the kick drum. They quit making them because of the expense.
Wow, beautiful!
