Tama Mastercraft Steel 5x14

[Phildrummer]

Hello, can anyone advise on this serial number please? The number seems to be 141377, for what I expect to be a 1980 Mastercraft 8055. But I thought the year would be preceding the number. Should this be a warning please?

The year preceding the serial was only on 1982, 83, and maybe 84 tama top shelf drums. Your six digit serial should equate to 80/81.

And you should get extended snare wires for those roller bearings. They make a difference!

Thanks Levelpebble.
