i just got my hands on a set of what are said to be vintage pearl drums...im not sure what decade they are from but they are silver with the single post tom mount that had the clamp on it so you couild mount both toms on it

so its a single post with something that looks somewhat like this on it
http://www.music123.com/Pearl-BB3-Bass-Drum-Tom-Mount-Bracket-i16116.music
and the toms mount in that...

anyway, the pedal is one of the ones with the leather strap drive system on it iinstead of a chain...anyone have any idea how old these are...

p.s. ill have pics tomorrow

Crica means “of that time” or “the approximate date of”
It can be used for a person, place or thing.

Hi!

I'm new at this board and own the similar set (only Jet Black) myself. Could you advise what is the material used on these drums and how thick are the shells?

Thanks and Greets from Finland! :)
