Thanks guy's i hate to say all drums have been SOLD..That's has to be the fastest turn around on selling drums in my life..Now time for packing them up...A side note i got these drums at a very ,very good price i jusy wanted to pass them on to member's.I know i could have made alot more on Ebay selling them...Iam happy that all drums are going to stay in the U.S.A....So the way i look at it drums stay in the U.S. made money and still have the 12 snare drums to add to my collection of my Gretsch drums for Free....Mikey

Hey Mikey. If you want to part with one of those 12 Gretsch snare drums or any other, just let me know. I'm looking for a player/re-wrap candidate from the early 70's for my son's kit.

Thanks for selling to VDF members. You're one awesome dude. :)

Has anybody received any of these drums and got their RB project started? Any Pics? Kind of anxious to see what everybody was going to do as far as wraps and such and I can get my own 3 ply RB project back on track as soon as I can get a 16" FT.

Believe it or else!

Mick - how long ago did you order/pay for, the floor tom? Seems like this sale was awhile ago...

John

No Payment requested or sent. The way I understood the thread, Mikey was going to contact folks in the order that they contacted him. I think he had about 40 drums and figured it would take a while especially when you see all the other stuff he has going on.

Believe it or else!
