Wanted: Trixon Speedfire

[Sparkletone]

Anyone out there have a Trixon Speedfire kit they'd like to sell?

I'd even be interested in just acquiring the ever-so-elusive Trixon Speedfire bass drum.

Also known as the Vox Jetfire, these kits have the "egg shaped / melted" bass drums and look like this:

These were first manufactured in Germany in the 50's and are about as common as a vegetarian at a White Castle drive-thru ;)

Thanks,

I love those Trixons. I have never seen one in person though. I mean, they look fantastic! Its too bad there rare. Did they catch on well?

There was one on Ebay about a month ago, haven't seen anything like that in my neck of the woods.

Just a question. How would you be able to get a bd head like that?Party

Hello Mark,

I know your post is pretty old by now, did you ever find that Speedfire you were looking for? I have a set for sale and is in very rare condition.

Thank you,
David

Hi everyone,

Thanks for your help / suggestions.

I'm actually not in the market for this kit anymore.

Wish I could delete this post, but I don't know how!

I'm restoring my '65 Speedfire kit right now, I'll let you know when it's done if you're still looking.

[dewingsfan]

I have an untouched Trixon Speedfire that I will be looking to sell if anyone is interested. Please visit www.southernthumbmusic.com and select Vintage Drums Sets and you will see pictures of the set. I'm open to accept offers but fully aware that this kit is special and rare. My contact information is dave@southernthumbmusic.com

Thanks for looking

Hi

do you know when you will have prices on most of your stuff?

Hard to buy without prices!

Thanks

[dewingsfan]

Hopefully by weeks end. My father passed away last May and have no financial records on his collection. Finding or researching prices is very difficult and SLOW so that is why I'm open to offers. Your offers will also help me to determine the value and a fair asking price. We have a huge collection and posted only a few on the website. Little by little our family will get through his collection and will post as soon as they are appraised.

Thanks

Dave

Hi Henk,

What a beautiful Trixon! I'm not looking any more, but I do appreciate your post. Anyone else here interested? It sure is gorgeous!!

Thanks,
Mark

Hi Mark,

You found yourself a set or did you stop looking?
I'm selling because i'm a sonor Teardrop (and older) collector and need the space for more Sonor's, although these Trixons are very special and "odd".

My needs changed and I stopped looking.
Now I admire from afar!!
