It's going to be a work in progress for a little while, but there's enough content now to officially announce it:

Enjoy!
I'm still seeking scans and photos. I'm keeping downloads fairly tidy, and large, hi-res submissions will be reduced accordingly. So 72dpi and maybe 800px wide is sufficient.
And if you have any additional information or a correction to something I've written, please let me know.
Thanks!

Awesome site Bermuda,
Looking at those kits brings back memories. My first real kit was a late 70's Mohave Red Rogers double bass with four up top and two on the bottom, all concert. Man I wish I could find that kit. Had a lot of great times jammin on it. I never had a problem competing with the volume of the amps in the band. Those drums were loud!
I look forward to your next installment.

Great job! I saw some of those kits in action back in the day.
I too remember when those kits were the latest and greatest.
I enjoyed poking around on the site.
Thanks for posting it here.
Excellent website!! What a great selection if pictures too. Those pool side shots of your kits are amazing!
Bermuda,
Great to have met you at NAMM!
Very cool site...! Unfortunately I converted my last two concert toms to standard. Just wasn't my thing I guess...
DOH
You need to show this set on the site.
I JUST missed the boat on a Tama Imperialstar concert tom kit that was being sold locally. Metallic silver, and in great shape, including the original Kingbeat snare drum. 12/13/14/15, 16" FT, 22" kick. KILLER!!! Back in the late-70's, that was a typical Tama kit seen inmany studios here in NY. I cut a lot of demos and jingles on kits like that.
Guess I'll have to keep looking, or build them myself.
