Late Vistalite Christmas Last viewed: 42 minutes ago

Loading...

I can't believe what just happened... I just bought a Ludwig Vistalite Tequila sunrise on Ebay Germany. It had just been listed for 2 minutes or so.

As it looks it includes 22-12-13-16 drums, supra snare, speedking, also some stands and cymbals of unknown origin.... And the best, the price! 100€

I am organizing pickup now (400km, but for that price i'll hit the Autobahn) keep your fingers crossed, i'll keep you posted! x-mas3

You didn't read the fine print in the ad though.......

You have to have your kitchen done up in the same wallpaper and flooring when you buy the kit,or no deal,and,the same fugly chairs also! Mind Blowi

That is no problem. All kitchens incl. furniture have to look like that by law. You may vary the amount of cigarette caused yellow color on the wallpapers though.

I must have been a good boy!

Picked up the drum kit today, and here is what i got for that unbelievable price..

Ludwig Vistalite tequila Sunrise 22-12-13-16 (all serials 135****), mufflers were removed, but came in a bag (looking brand-new)

Ludwig Supra 14x5 (Serial 150****)

Ludwig Atlas Snarestand, HH Stand and Cymbal Stand

Ludwig Speed King (looks unused)

Pearl vintage Cymbals stand

Paiste 18" Formula 602 Crash

Paiste Super 14" Crash

Zildjian Avedis 15" Hihats (1960s stamp i think)

Ludwig drumkey

Wrench for the hex-screws

Orig. Ludwig wire brushes

Spare screws, rubber feet for FT Legs........

All shells are in great condition, only issue... DIRT :-)

Snare with minimal pitting.

NO RUST on shells HW or stands.

toms and snare have the original heads.

the kit looks like it has never left the house. according to the seller it belonged to his brother who died 15 years ago, the kit has been set up in a corner of the house since then. apparently there were 5 more drum kits, that he just gave away, wonder what those were ;) He was happy with the price (he just wanted to get rid of the kit he said...)

I'll be back soon with pictures and some questions.... first one here: what heads should i use? i was thinking about a Remo CS/Ambassador combination for toms and Kick. Snare Amb/Amb...
