22x14: The bass drum is in great condition! The interiors are very clean with the original tag. The bearing edges are original and sharp. The wrap on the shell is original, seem is tight and there are no chips or any damage to the wrap. The very top of the bass drum shows a couple of dark spots, where is seems the wrap didn't have a few pieces of sparkle. See photo. The bass drum hoops have been completely refinished. Hand sanded down to bare wood and repainted. The inlay is new production champagne sparkle - but considering the minimal fade of the kit, this inlay actually matches better than some of the original inlay found on these kits. All of the hardware is original and in great condition. The wing screw for the cymbal arm mount has a bent wing/arm.
16x16 : The floor tom is also in wonderful condition! All original hardware - Original bearing edges that are all sharp and clean. The wrap seem is tight and interiors are clean with original tag. The hardware is clean with minimal pitting, however the resonant side hoop is rough. Many deep scratches on this particular hoop.
13x9 : Like the other drums, the rack tom is in excellent condition. Tight seam, clean interiors with the original tag. The wrap is in excellent condition and the bearing edges are super nice. The hardware is very clean with minimal pitting and like the floor tom, the resonant side hoop is a bit rough with plenty of scratches.
All in all, this is an excellent kit!
