Blair - once I have them in front of me, I'll take a bunch of 'before' shots and I'll be sure to include a good close-up of the tom mount set-up. Looks to be all metal in the first photo, no wood block.

Snare that age and in the condition described could be COB - I'd say you this is a good purchase. Looking forward to more pictures.

Update: Spoke to pocilja today. Sounds like a nice guy. We're all set to swap cash for drums sometime this week-end. I'll post some shots after I get them home.
I'm psyched... my first Sky Blue Pearl kit! I might be playing with a second band shortly and I'm going to need a kit that sounds good, looks good and that I won't be afraid to take out of the house. This one fits the bill perfectly!
Photos soon...

I don't think so Jag... the guy mentions some pitting. The ad reads: "Snare is plated metal and shows some oxidation."
COB's don't pit. I'll be real happy with a run-of-the-mill supra.

We meet up tomorrow to do the deal. I've spoken to him on the phone a few times, seems like a genuinely nice guy. I'm looking forward to meeting him and bringing home my new/old toys.
Photos and a report on condition as soon as I'm home.
Safe travels...

Hey John,
Speaking of sky blue pearl, I picked up a PDP CX kit for my nephew and it looks very similar to the Ludwig SBP. It might just have a little more blue tint to it, but its a really cool color. Good luck with your transaction.
