That Red Silk appears to be the same as Sonor's Wine Marble.

Here's a re-post of the Black Shadow's...

Man, some amazing Premier kits in here. I just got a mid-70's Premier B303, 3-ply AM kit, with a COA 2000 snare. I'll post updated pic's when dialed in. I'm in love with this set. It's my favorite vintage drum purchase in recent memory...the sound is unreal.

Cheers.

Recently acquired a Premier Artist Maple (Older version without RIMS & English made) from a local rehearsal studio. Was badly beaten up & in a very sorry state. Even in it's knackered state it did sound good.

Got it very, very cheap & set about restoring it. Have left all the shell dings & scrapes. The chrome has come up like new, Fitted all new heads & away we go Mallet Player2
