Great thoughts Chris!
The hardware is original, ("Swiv-O-Matic"), and was the most advanced hardware of that time. It is still considered very strong and is fully adjustable. Now having the drums, (editing this post), the pedal is OK, but I'll look for a Rogers "Swiv-O-Matic" foot pedal and a "Dyna-Sonic" snare. They are really incredible snares, and go for around $1200. I would like to find a good deal of that snare,, or at least to get a Rogers "Powertone".
Looks as if this kit was not taken out of previous houses though.
It will be used just in my little home studio/office, with maybe doing some songs over with the real drums, verses the keyboard drums I've been using. But mainly, for just playing with all kinds if songs,, ours and the past ones I used to love to play with when I was 13 to about 17. And for exercise, and stress release, and FUN!
I would rather have a double tom with seperate mountings,,,, as this has one tom mounted from the bass drum. A long way to the floor tom! Maybe I can get a stand alone tom stand for two toms! Hmmmmmm!
Thanks for the advice about if he is happy with that price, then it's OK. Makes sense, NOW!
Yeah,,if I was a drummer only and planning to play out, I would too go for the newer kits, with all the options they now offer. It will be just cool for me to have someting from a time I grew up from. They DO really sound great too. Construction is solid in those Rogers. Everything is thick! The shells are coated with a grey material, (improved shells), and are made by a company called "Keller Wood Products", in New Hampshire.
Thanks again!
John
