Value of a Premier 2000 Flo-Beam ca.1974

Loading...

I received this drum as partial payment for restoring a friends mid 70's Premier kit. It was in such good shape and original, I cleaned it up and put it away. Not knowing what it was worth, I offered it in response to an ad here.

I thought it might be a $300 piece. Appearantly, I was wrong. What do these go for?

Original snare wires are in tact, as is the muffler and die cast rims and slotted tension screws. Some light pitting here and there is it's only issue.

Opinions please.....

I sell on ebay. One thing I forgot to say is if you were to put that snare drum with a kit of the period in top condition you would get good money. Full complete premiers are sought after. ....sean

Thanks, found you there.....

I could not possibly bring myself to take apart such a beautiful, vintage piece like this and part it out.

Would prefer to closet/case it for 10 years and see what happens then.

I had one for sale in better nik than yours I thought im in the money. Every single washer was gleaming it had 2 small specs on the shell also original ever play heads it came in at £150. [COLOR="Red"]I get more scraping them for parts. [/COLOR]The only money is putting them with a kit to increase value of complete 70's kit. I sell Ludwig snare drums now buy them in USA for peanuts and sell them in UK full price......Sean....

Yep, we really like hearing this here, too.....

Good to know, and keeping it in mind......
