Vintage or just Haggard? Last viewed: 3 minutes ago

Posts: 16 Threads: 6

I am trying to find out a possible time of one of my drums. I’m new to vintage kits and I’m trying to find out more information on one of my bassdrums. I found a bassdrum while cleaning out my cousin’s basement for her; I guess it belonged to my great uncle. (I also found an older stewart snare drum while cleaning)The wrap was ripped and it was starting to effect the wood so I had to remove me before it caused any more damage. I uploaded pictures of the hardware close up as well as the drum/hoop to my drum forum gallery(sadly only one hoop was with it)

hopfully someone can help me

Good save. That is looking like an Olympic from the sixties, which was Premiere's cheaper line. Probably beechwood. Not a super collectible drum. I've had some Olympics that actually sounded pretty dang good though. Put it back together and play that sucker! The Ludwig bracket is not original of course.
