I got a bag of cymbals as a kind of christmas present from myself. I bought them a month ago but received them yesterday. Seller knew nothing about them and he sent me a couple of crappy photos. All I knew was that there was a 14" Zildjian hihat, Sabian 16" & 20" and Istanbul turk ride. Otherwise a bought a pig in a poke. The deal included 80's Pearl cymbal stands and total price was around 320 USD.

So I finally got them and opened the case at my rehearsal room. The Sabians turned out to be early medium thin HHs - really nice! And the Zildjian hats were 790g/860g new stamp K. Zildjians! I've never heard such cymbals in my life, they sound so good! No way I'm going to sell these as I thought beforehand.

Due to the Fedex shipping problems we had to open some gifts last night. Il bet nobody got a Rockin Robin shirt! Idid, from my daughter in Houston. The book came from my wife. Funny she got me a book, because I wrote here a 108 page book about our first 25 years together.

Hey Purdie, I know how you feel.. around 20 years ago one of my sisters gave me this one.. also around 15" tall.. she said it reminded her of me at the kit.. Now days every time I walk past it, I am reminded to check in at VDF.. Cheers

How wonderful are our wives?On the Sunday before Christmas my wife says"What do you think about buying the Citrus Mod set Steve Maxwell has for sale?"

Keep in mind I had shown her the picture and playfully asked her about buying it.I do collect Ludwig and have several of their hard to find finishes.

I thought she was joking(Won't mention the price),but she wasn'!I am waiting for a Ludwig Rock Duo in Citrus Mod to be delivered tomorrow!

I think I owe her.Car Driving2A car maybe?

No more drums for the rest of this year,but I am a happy man!

Ludwig collection of sets and pioneer snare drums.
Example of Rogers,Slingerland,Gretsch,Premier and Ajax sets.
Various '60's and '70's US,English and Japanese snare drums.
HELP,NEED MORE SPACE!
