This is a pioneer, right, not a jazz fest?

Pioneer=6 lugs, Jazzfest=8 lugs. Thats a decent drum for the money, not many JFs in nickle.

Yep the BIN is a great price in my opinion.

Ah, right. Should have known that. Mind has been off drums for a while but for some reason was thinking 10 -vs- 8. The brain is a terrible thing......

Thanks, and i agree I think that BIN is great price for this drum. Assume will be scooped up now.

It's a good thing I don't have a case of GAS today. Somebody please buy this.

good deal but personally I think gold is the worst of all the Ludwig sparkle wraps of that time....but probably just me.

hadn't seen this thread. was checking the drum auction out a few minutes ago. all looked well. hit the button and it was already gone. that's a nice deal for someone.

the matching kit is a little more rich:

Glad I hadn't seen this earlier or I probably would have tried to pull the trigger. I could use a Jazz fest like that with my Gold Sparkle Club Date (I have a matching Pioneer but wouldn't mind a JF) that was a good price for that.

It really was a nice price. the seller left some on the table. KO is your club date kit nickel plated? I love nickel. It's more work but so luxurious.

Yes, Nickel on the original bass and tom (the ones that I originally owned on 1974-1975) so that JF would have been perfect.
