Off on a field trip to Santa Cruz this weekend. A trip to Starving Musician was great. Ended up with a Niles badge set of Slingy's WMP 13/16/24! Yur basic BR kit. Yeah, I know he had another floor tom, but he rarely used it , except as a towel holder. *And* a keystone Acrolite. Not a bad day. The set's gonna be fun fixing up. Even included two cymbal arms. Think I'll have to have BD, on the bar and shield type logo..... Aloha, Bill D.

real nice. I have some Slingerlands to recover that were originally white satin flame? WMP may be the way to go, wonder what modern version would most resemble those?

Yeah. For some reason, the ride cymbal holder's been moved to the rear of the shell. The empty spot's the original location. The other two extras are on top, from a removed rail mount. They used two of the existing holes for the Set-O-Matic mount.
It does have two cymbal mounts and L-arms with it. Gonna have to get a little splash ala BR for it!

It was a Krupa set-up before.
When it got it's new mount, looks like it has been set up so the player is on the "fire side" of the bass.
That's actually backwards, see the bass legs are off center towards the "fire side/player's side".....?
They should be towards the audience side.
They had to move the cymbal mount to use it.... the ride tom would be in the way...
I bet they sound killer!!!!
