WANTED: Old Drum Sets, Drums & Parts
Do you have a tired or unwanted old drum set that needs saving?
As a retired drummer, my hobby is refreshing tired old drum kits into usable sets; so I can offer them to new drummers for a fraction of the cost of a new set.
Every set is stripped, inspected & cleaned. Wherever possible, the worn, damaged, or missing parts are repaired or replaced. I re-wrap the shells in attractive vinyl or fabric and then reassemble them as refreshed drum sets with a new lease of life.
Ideally, I'm looking for complete (but tired) drum sets, and for a really complete one (5+ drums & 3+ cymbals) I'll pay up to $200.00.
I'll also consider partial drum sets, usable drum kit parts, individual drums, cymbal stands, cymbals, etc. They must be cheap (or free) and within a cost-effective driving distance from Wanganui.
See the before and after shots of what I can achieve - and contact me at 021 447481 if you have anything I might be interested in.
