  •  I had a 5 pc Zickos kit bought in 1973 from the factory (another story) and recently replaced it with a 7 pc kit same brand, same vintage.  Newly refurbished and up and running.

    Between my son and yours truly play a number of drum sets at any given time; these include an originally purchased '66 Ludwig 4-piece silver sparkle DB kit (includes several pre-serial and late '60s pieces added fairly recently), '80s Tama Superstar (2 sets) and Imperialstars kits, early '80s Yamaha RC and '90s RTC kits, late '60s Gretsch burgundy sparkle RB kit, plus a monster Legend drum set (two bass drums, two FTs., three rack toms, and 5 snare drums). In the mix there are also snare drums from Pearl, end Pork Pie...

    i like the Zickos as well, a friend of mine winnie mensink , known from hidehitters also has a set in his collection.
    have u still not found out who stole your set? they should cut off his hands imho. good to hear though that your new set is doing the job
  • NaNoNoiZeNaNoNoiZe May 2011
    hi elcid, im a yap fan as well, i own as u might know some yapanese firewood , hahahahahaaa
  • NaNoNoiZe,

    I've given up on there return.  Probably in Central or South America somewhere probably in a church "praising the Lord".  My "new" kit is really nice, just not the same.
  • NaNoNoiZeNaNoNoiZe May 2011
    i can understand , i had my first ever set an aria galaxy pro(that means asian oak piece of crap)
    stolen after i gig ,i replaced it with a remo mastertouch but still didnt feel right

    Ludwig 100th. Anniversary Legacy Classic Liverpool 4 is my main gigging kit these days. Big beatles fan here ( Obviously) and this kit just sounds amazing for all my gigs these days.

    I picked up a Ludwig Element SE Downbeat (Cherry/Gum shells ) in Citrus Mod wrap and this is such a nice sounding drum set regardless of the price.
  • Gretsch USA Customs 5pc Bop set in Millenium Maple.  18, 14, 10,12, 14 snare.

    Hi, I'm a new member. Playing early 80s ludwig classics mixed with some B/O pieces. Yet I really love my script badge dynasonic, as well as any other drum.

Howdy, Stranger!
