There's still some real BP's out there with only beautiful wood underneath.
Where's my matching snare is what I want to know?
I've seen a matching snare, but that was a few years back.... seems even more rare than the 18" floors
Mark, what sizes is your kit? looks great!
I tried to send a message to the guy selling the bis BP kit on eBay.
I wanted to ask him about maybe selling the (non Citrus mod) 24" Bass Drum separately, but couldn't send a message.
Maybe it's because i am in Germany... has anybody been in touch with the guy???
Well I just bought a kit so let's see what's under that wrap wish me luck and even if not it's still nice gary
It's a 1969 "Superbeat" aka a Super Classic set with the optional 20" kick instead of 22". So 20/13/16. My fav size combo currently. I have several of this size combination. These drums are gorgeous inside & out & really PROJECT! They needed a REAL good cleaning & some TCL. I'm pumped to gig with them this weekend! I did get a sort of matching snare though..
The preacher in Ohio, that has this kit with 18 ft , and a bit of wrap thats coming loose , and it looks like all Bp , then again who knows ! I talked to him , and he has changed his mind a lot from 500 , he then relisted 700 , needing 450 in parts (all rims missing and t rods new skins etc) for restoration , again it has 18 " ft. but missing hoops and t rods it's a huge gamble ! but I backed off . So roll the dice on this one if I was closeer I would do a discovery and see what's under Bp wrap . He is not to cooperative , if, big if , there orange under it than its a gold mind but never the less a ton of work....
I love BP so much that i almost rewrapped my orphans Ludwig kit with a very similar material from a furniture upholstery shop, which would've been even cheaper than the custom wrap i went with.. If i ever find a good deal on some bare vintage Ludwig shells, that's what i intend to do..
18" BP Floor Toms aren't insane to find, compared to something I saw for sale once a couple years ago, which was a BP set with 2-18" bass drums!
