I just bought a bucket list drum set. The kit is a matching four piece DW Classic series with the single maple ply snare. This is a limited run with the Radio King lugs etc. I am going to have to move all my stuff around now, but here is my plan. I will keep this kit as well as my three piece early 50's Slingerland Radio Kings. I will use the single ply maple snare that comes with the DW Classic kit with the Radio Kings. I will have to sell everything else but hope to be able to keep my 58 ludwigs (transition badge with matching Jazz Festival). If I pull it off, I will be able to have zero drum debt and those three kits to show from my last three years of collecting. The pic I included of the DW kit shows two floor toms. I do not play two floor toms so I only bought one from the guy.

Thanks and congrats.

Those are sweet! DW's and RK's!! I would have tried to get the 2nd floor tom with the DW's though. Don't see many of these for sale. Very nice!!
