just got the scoop it was purchased 77/78 and it is stainless octa so the research so far has that there were only 4 of theses made in the 70's at least from what i read at another site so as that goes how rare does that make this kit and i guess concert drums are even making a comeback the snare comes with it also cant wait to get them....

once the brass ceases to glitter, and the drum looses its luster, and the stage remains dark, all you have left is the timbre of family.

Just so you know I bought my Stainless Big Beat kit new in 78' so that time line is correct. Awesome score by the way. I'm sure you know what those 26"s are worth. I'll bet that was one expensive kit in 77/78'.

Sounds like you scored big! Cant wait to see pictures. A friend of mine had an octoplus kit in the 70s and it was the coolest thing ever. Way to go!

I don't know if it's that contagious. My wife complimented my kit when I finished touching it up, but she wasn't too fond of me spending the money on the kit and then parts. ;)

My wife likes road trip adventures to places we have never been so she is good with a trip to get drums. She is starting to appreciate them now. She wants me to give her 500.00 so she can prove to me that she knows enough to make a smart purchase. What do you think, worth the gamble?
