Hey everyone. I was wondering how much I could get (in $CAN) for these drums. I think they are from 1969, and if anyone could let me know how much I could get for just the drums, that'd be awesome. Thanks.
P.S. Not sure on the on the depths but the diameters are 14" 22" 12" 14"

It look like it's a basement / garage and here in canada we store our bicycle for winter so hung that way it doesn't take space...

BTW thread starter keep that vintage set if not I'm sure you'll regret it :)

The only reason why I would sell them, is because its my first set, i have almost absolutely no money, and i need a real set that i can play full time. i wont be able to get that much money for them, so im looking into doing a trade. I mean i love these drums, they're damn nice. i just need the best set i can play right now, and i have no money. and they are actually pretty cheap quality drums...but i do love the vintage look 00** BTW the bikes hanging upside down...this is my guitar players house in our band. His garage is huge so i guess they're like that so they're outa the way

For the record, earlier than mid-seventies pearls and tamas were essentially garbage. Granted, they are starting to gain a certain "vintage" appeal, but still you'd be lucky to get $250 for that set, assuming it's in good condition. Lately people are buying them for the kitsch factor, but due to the sheer number of them produced the laws of supply and demand keep the prices low.

yeah the drums i have now are in pretty good condition. The drums i'd be getting is a 12" rack tom, 16" floor tom, 24" bass drum...it doesnt come with a snare, but im borrowing one right now and looking on building my own...or getting a friend to build one for me...i might have a good deal on a 12 X 4 inch snare shell so i might go for that...I dont have a pic of the drums...but its a pearl export EXR in a white strata wrap. its pretty damn nice. ill get a pic as soon as possible
