Howdy Folks -
After stumbling across these drums in a junk yard over in East Texas they stayed in my mind. I'm a guitar player, not a drummer. But they seemed cool and it seemed a waste for them to be in the back corner collecting dust with iron cookware stored on top of them.
So, several months later, I went by there last weekend and they were still there. And I imagine they have been there a long, long time.
This time I decided to see how much it would cost for him to let them go. Here's the guy:

So now I've got these two drums which almost seems to be two too many for a guitar player, but I'm not opposed to piecing together a cool oddball vintage drumset. But if there's someone out there that might appreciate these more than I then that would also be a cool place for them to wind up.

Please let me know if you are interested. I also read the rules first so hopefully there are no violations of forum protocol here. I'll close the post when it's run its course.
Thanks!
