Early 1970’s Star/pre TAMA Last viewed: 2 hours ago

Posts: 322 Threads: 19

One of my Star kits (pre-Tama), early 70's, Tiger pearl, 12/16/22. Completely stripped down and restored, including:

- Shells trued, edges re-cut (30 degree with round over), interiors sanded and two-tone stained, bass drum hoops sanded down to the wood, inlays re-glued. All done by KBM Custom Drums.

- Wrap/hardware cleaned and polished.

- New Aquarian Modern Vintage heads.

- All lugs packed.

- Upgraded Pearl floating floor tom legs.

I also have a second set of maple bass drum hoops, stained red. Love the look of both sets. Nice to have options.
