Help identifying a Ludwig Keystone Kit. Last viewed: 16 hours ago

Loading...

Hello everyone,

I'm new to this forum and kinda diggin' for vintage drums.

I'm from France (excuse my french) and it's very difficult to find vintage drum kits here!

I may have found one who match to my desires but it's very difficult for me to know exactly what it is, and to know if it's a good deal.

The price is about 1900$

Sizes are 20"x? / 13"x? / 16"x? / and snare 14x7,5"

Many thanks in advance for your answers and opinions.

Diwaize.

For $1900. you can buy a kit here in the USA that is in much better condition than that one and still have enough money left over to cover shipping and any import taxes. For $1900 (even if they are hard to find in Europe,) you can do much, much better buying here and shipping to France.

That kit is beat! Parts missing, wrong hoops on the bass drum, the Supra is suffering from terminal acne and the wrap is faded. If it was here, I wouldn't give you a penny more than $600 for it - as it sits.

Wait, something better will come along. Be patient. Get the most for your hard earned money. Being anxious to buy is your worst enemy. Patience wins the day. Find out how much it would cost to ship a set of drums from the US to France and then start watching the For Sale section here and at other drum sites. Make sure you get to know whoever you are dealing with. Get feedback from past customers if you can. Come back here and ask us! If it's someone with a bad reputaion, we'll let you know. You'll get a great kit for the same money.

Welcome to VDF!
