  • Another Forum for restoration.

    Picked this up earlier. Nice complete kit but had Bass Drum wrap issues which I am hoping I can cure. Failing that, there is a cheap shell in the same wrap on eBay

    Curious.
    As I never have done it, would it be less costly to re-wrap it ?

      Removed the wrap & it is knackered. Luckily, I have found another shell in the same wrap

        Go on then, stain the original shell and make yourself a gong drum!

            Not being a **** but why bother wth a forum when you have a recording custom and a masters? Are you just doing it for the fun of it? (not judging, just wondering)

                Hah! Well that makes sense then. What a fun way to earn money.

                edit - Are you that guy on Gumtree London than has a bazillion entry-to-medium level kits?
