I hope this is the correct forum for this, but can anyone ID this bass drum?

Thanks. Any idea what they are worth (range)? Saw these on CL..they are asking $150 with a Ludwig snare. I'm attaching the only pic I have with the snare...not real clear.

150 bucks buys two tanks of gas for my truck anymore so if you can get four drums, a pedal and a stand, go for it!!

(of course you should ALWAYS try and lowball any purchase and offer 100 and meet him at 125 when he counters.....)

With the Acrolite, that is what it is, try to talk him down to 100. The Acrolite is the best part, but these old MIJ kits can sound alright if you know how to tune them up. Don't insult the guy by offering him 75. The Acro is worth that.

Looks like a peeled Stewart kit from the early 70's.
