Rare Yamaha Vinnie Colaiuta 4.5x14 Last viewed: 11 hours ago

I believe that only 500 were made .

Very fine condition .

Hate to part with it but as mentioned in other for sale threads we are building a new house in the city and I will no longer be able to play acoustic drums in the house so most of my collection has got to go .

Saw one of these go for $ 1200 a while back .

You can have this one for 80,000 yen ( approx. $ 650 ) shipped Express .

Will be uploading more and better quality pics soon .

P.S. This drum is not simply a stock Yamaha snare with a signed badge. It is unique in size, it has offset lug housings, unique finish, extra wide snappy set , and specially designed bearing edges . It sounds unbelievable . Even if Vinnie's name was not on it it is still pretty special.

The Vinnie snare has tons of power , warmth and body . Even when tuned pretty low it retains the crack and definition. This may be due to the different bearing edge angle as well as the extra wide spappy .

This will give you an idea of how the drum sounds ( at high-ish tuning ) . [ame="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TPP2HZutSzQ"]You Are My Answer DRUMLAB - YouTube[/ame]

80,000 yen to USA inc. Express shipping ( 85,000 to Europe ) - whatever that works out to in US dollar or Euro on the day you send either international postal money order or bank wire transfer . If you prefer bank wire you must pay the commission fee my bank charges me ( $ 20 ) and pay the bank wire acceptance fee your bank would charge , ( varies from bank to bank but around $ 15 ) at your end when wiring .Thanks .
