Are those original, or a re-wrap? Either way, they came out spectacular. I'm a sucker for Red Sparkle and Red Glass wraps. The drums look killer.

Thanks John! Yes it is a rewrap - LA Camco were not offered in this finish, a deep red sparkle wrap (not glass glitter).
I came into a set of toms with no kick and tracked down a kick in order to assemble a full kit. It's taken a while but the results are well worth it.

You're being modest. The results are spectacular! I assembled an Oaklawn kit from orphans I bought on fleabay about 6 years ago. I never regretted the time it took to find all the shells and parts, or the investment in fresh wrap and new heads for them. Best sounding set of drums I had ever owned up to that point in time. Now I have a Geoge Way kit, the grand-daddy of all Camco kits and I'm in drummer heaven.
You did real good. Enjoy your drums for many years to come.

What a fantastic looking kit in great sizes! Great job on the resto! A Camco or George Way kit is definitely on the bucket list for me.

Superb drums, great sizes, stunning color,... what do you want more?
Congratulations on this fantastic Camco set.
How do you like the sound?
From experience I know that those 24” Camco Keller bass drums can be quite a handful,...
