This is a PDP American Vintage kit. Sizes: Bass 22x14; Floor 14x14; Rack 12x8.

The kit is in fantastic condition, including the shells, wrap, bearing edges, and chrome.

This kit is a gem and worth it, so I added some upgrades in the hardware...

Less than 100 of these kits were made in this finish, black oyster glass. The finish on this kit has a gold undertone to the sparkle, which mostly comes as the drums age. This particular kit gained the gold undertone in a very uniform manner, which doesn't always happen. It looks fantastic under the lights!

You can note in the pictures, I added polished brass t-nut insets on the lugs. It is a very cool and subtle upgrade that really pops with the gold sparkle wrap. I also upgraded to Pearl Fat Tone hoops, a significant aesthetic and sonic improvement!

The final touch is a set of Aquarian Classic Clear over Remo Ambassadors heads. I also added the Aquarian Super Kick I and a DW Classic Reso with custom cut mic port. All the heads are mostly new. I have played them a few times.

There is one issue; two of the floor tom leg brackets cracked. They could easily be replaced. I just didn't get around to it. I acquired the kit with those cracks. Otherwise the kit is absolutely perfect!

This kit is gem, very rare as it was, and truly one-of-a-kind with the brass t-nuts and Fat Tone hoops.

For those who don't know. These are Keller mahogany/poplar shells, with maple reinforcement rings. The word is DW assembled these drums with new 'old-stock' in their Oxnard plant as they transitioned into their own DW manufactured shells. These were the only PDP drums ever made in America.

Feel free to ask me any questions you like.

Note: snare and hardware are not included - 3 piece kit for sale only.

Shipping will be updated with actual cost once shipped... Local pickup available in Bristol, TN.
