Oh...Man this is stunning. Under the curcumstances, you've got to find the silver lining. In this case it's Aqua Satin Flame with silver lining on the interior. Awesome kit...this is the kind of rare find that is just, sublime. Enjoy!

So... now you're going to switch to being a drummer, right? With that kit, you get to start out on the very best there is. I hope you enjoy them for many years to come. I'd sell off a testicle to own those. You have no idea how lucky you got with that kit. A real 'drummers drum set'.

I lost my younger brother to cancer in 1968. It's a sadly large club we belong to. Sorry to hear of your loss, but real glad to hear of your personal victory.

Live long and prosper... great set of drums!

John

Too many great drums to list here!
