Hi Everyone.....Just bought myself another Hayman kit. Its the Showman 22 12 13 16. The snare i will be adding a premier 2000 plus 252 pedal trilok snare stand plus trilok hi hat and two boom heavy duty cymbal stands plus a red top premier drum seat. Im travelling to scotland on wednesday to pick the kit up. The drummer is a pro recording artist so the drum chat will be great. You will see a pic with two bass drums that was when he had this as a monster kit. Reminded me of a louis belson set up....Here are the pics of my new babys....

Ive actually got the kit now and wow its better than the pics. The chrome all round is probably the best ive ever seen on a hayman. Comes with bass drum cymbal stand. The wrap is nice but not the greatest of wrap jobs. Can be sorted but basically i hate white. When ive done the job it will be 100%. The top hoop of 12" which is premier die cast is being changed for a hayman hoop plus a couple of backing screws and washers here and there are wrong so that will be put right. Im also putting a gold metallic wrap on the kit. The points mentioned are just small minor things. Once the wrap job is done by myself the new Showman will be revealed and open to realistic offers. All the best......sean
What a great looking kit (white is awesome, always looks great under stage lights :D). Those Hayman lugs look nearly (if not exactly) identical to the lugs on my Hart electronic kit!

Not-so-vintage kits:
2007 Hart Dynamics Professional 6.4 e-kit / Roland TDW-20
Snares:
60s Gretsch 5x14 maple WMP / 68 Ludwig 5x14 Supraphonic / 93 Pearl 3x14 Free Floating brass piccolo / 60s Star (Lyra) 5x14 luan blue sparkle pearl / 87 Pearl 6.5x14 steel
I agree white is a great colour but not for me. The gold metallic will take it near to the original colour which had been stripped off as it was damaged. The hayman lugs on this kit are in tip top condition.
