I'm new here cause I was digging on the net for some info about this set I just got I'm pretty excited guys... Last week I bought a very nice (dusty but nice) Premier set. It is exactly the Ringo Star set from his early days but with a gold sparkle finish. The really nice part about this set is the size of it.. It has a snaredrum, two toms and two floortoms. The biggest one isn't Officially a Premier but a Trixon floor. It does have the same finish so it had to be added to the set way back. Now here's something you don't see everyday. This set came with two original Premier bongo's on the original stand!! Wow man, I've never seen that before!! This set belonged to a man who passed away, His widow stored the set in the basement (warm and dry luckily!!) but had to move out so couldn't keep it. This set hadn't been played on in over 30 years. It has the original heads even. The cymbals that came with it are original Zildjians wich date frome the same era as the drumset does. The lady told me it was halfway the 60's... Now I'll have to do some serious cleaning but there is no rust. The bassdrumpedal has the rubber-like coating on the footpart, just like the hihatstand. I'm not really sure how to place both toms on the bassdrum. I think it's not meant for that because there is one standholder on the bassdrum in wich you can slide the tomholder and the other bracket on the bassdrum is just a knob on wich I can attach a tom but then it's way to low for playing it... Well check out my pictures and let me know what you think!!
