The kit consists of a 14/28 k, 10/15 tt, 16/18 ft. 3-ply, re-ring, large and beautiful. I, by pure luck, rescued these poor fellas (long story) and had them doctored and pampered by a restoration guru here in Nashville, TN. Drummers, friends and acquaintances are consistently wowed, and I'm so very proud. I'm itching to add a traditional bracket, in a, or the, traditional location on the bd shell for a ride cymbal arm. If this was a preference even back in the day (1968-70), then, I guess, placement liberty can be taken. I DO NOT wish to detract from any value. I DO like the Buddy config. with the two 599s @ approx. 10:30 mid shell, and 2:30 toward the reso side. If there is an exact traditional placement, I'm all for it. Or, if it's a preference and no harm will be done, it would be an easier process. Please, all synapse firings welcome. No blind fold here. Thanks!
