Yamaha RC drums; poor condition (i.e.cheap)

Posts: 1427 Threads: 66

Hello everyone.

I am the proud owner of some beautiful (looking and sounding) cobalt blue Yamaha RC drums. They look so nice and are rare enough now I am a bit scared to drag them out of the house any longer.

So, I was thinking I might put together a small "orphan" kit of any color/condition RC drums and strip and re-paint them some interesting color. (probably a green with the possibility of a gold flip-flop clear?) Therefore, beat, crusty drums are welcome to keep the cost as low as possible. I prefer the standard depth (once old-school that are now normal again as the 'square' power toms are NOW the old-school option???) toms and as I said, individual, sets, scratch and dent etc. all considered.

Thanks in advance to all!

PS:

Ideal sizes would be...

18 or 16 X 20 bass (deeper the better; 20" diameter)

8 X 8

8 X 10

8 X 12

9 X 13

12 X 15 (but the more common 14" tom is fine)

Feel free to PM me any info or leads.

Thanks!

Bumping this; still looking but am also considering some other options.

Since I already have a 'big' kit, I want a small 4-piece kit.

Still want a 20" bass, but standard 12 up and 14 floor tom.

If you have something, let me know!
