I don't mind the yellowing of the wrap, gives it character :). Those would sound fantastic!

Yeah, I like the yellowing too, I confess...

Does it seems in good conditions to you ?

I asked some pics of the badges and the bearing edges, I'm waiting for them.

Thanks anyway Brushbaby for the links to Rusty Drums, it's a good dealer, I'm waiting for a Ludwig sets arrival !

Glad it helped, I think the kits come in in a week or so, he always has nice clean Ludwig kits, I have just bought a lovely Leedy bop kit in fabulous condition from Mark, its the fourth kit I've had from him as well as many snare drums.

Good hunting

Those are really nice! I like the yellowed WMP too. I do think the pictures look a bit redish in color. Looking at the background it looks a bit red in some pictures. So the yellowing may or may not be as deep as it seems. Hard to tell really. Either way they'll sound fantastic. Best of luck~!

What are you guys smoking/drinking/snorting?

Real nice?....

Wouldn't you much rather have a real white WMP set,instead of one that looks like someone peed on after taking vitamins,then let it seep into the finish ?

I don't get it......

As long as the yellowing is even, throughout all the drums (which seems to be the case), I don't have a problem with it. I think it gives the drums character. I have quite a few yellowed WMP drums in my collection, and I don't mind a bit. I also have some that are not yellowed at all, and I value both kinds the same.
