LA badges is all we ever got down here....but, yeah, quite a place.

Fabulous snare Stef. Been after one of those for a while and narrowly missed one here in Sydney, Australia quite a few years back. Still on topic, I...

Killer looking kit. I had something in very similar sizes and they are beast-like (in a good way).

And Alan Turnbull as well. Not been a great week for Australian jazz....
10 years agoVery Rare Camco snare 4x13
Yeah, you wouldn't want to mess with this. I've got a set of the finish swatches. Very useful for restorations.
10 years agoCamco Oaklawn Badges Needed
You spray a few coats then very gently go over the raised lettering with some 0000 steel wool or other light abrasive. The letters come back to origin...

Easily fixed with a few coats of spray enamel but, yes, insanely expensive for a pressed bit of brass.
10 years agoCorrect Camco Bass Drum Logo

Yep, this is super specific. If you've got a Camco Super 99 snare drum and it's missing those bits that screw on to either side of the bottom rim th...
10 years agoCamber t-tops 6mm
A bit of a longshot but I'm after 4 (or even more) of these - the ones that fit the older imperial threads (though which are usually called 6mm).
10 years agoCamco tuxedo value
The green paint is definitely not original so you'd need to get rid of that which could be tricky. Wrapped Oaklawn kits had white painted interiors, l...
10 years agoVintage Premier
Looks like the 54 outfit (the model number, not the year) but likely late 1958 or thereabouts. Pre-international heads so you'll have that hurdle thou...
