make an offer dude. if the highest offer made is 5 dollars, then 5 dollars it is.
and if the person i am selling it for wants me to ask for 5000, thats what i put on the form. i wouldn;t pay a grand for it, and thats why i put obo.
and the hardware is damn heavy duty. double braced nothing, it's heavy as hell, very thick steel construction. not trying to hype it up for something it's not, but the hardware is twice as heavy duty as most rediculously expensive hardware out there. heavier than my gibraltar stuff, thats for damn sure.
it's just what it is.
and by big vintage sound i mean like an older sound. take john bonham for example. i don;t care what any big brained drummer or technician out there says, you can;t make your drums sound like that without getting old ass ludwig vista-lites. sorry, thats a fact. if you want that sound, this is it. it's like an old big band or swing sound.
i've tuned my drums to sound like that before, using the right heads and stuff, and it don't sound anything like my 1968 gretch 4 peice. it just doesn;t.
and i bought my 4 peice for about 350 without hardware and in need of some work, cuz i liked the set.
i sold my first set (ludwig, 5 pcs. all orginal in good condition) for $500 to someone who was looking for an old nice ludwig. some people will pay for what they want. never know, some collector might see it and want it. and the best offer takes it.
you want it? make an offer, thats why i put it up there. i mean, one of you guys might really like that set. i've been taking advice and info and tips from this group for like 6 months now. the least i can do is let you all know when i have something like this first, before i go and find some sucker to over pay for it.
make your offer.
Mike...
