QR Code Link to This Post
Pete Vespe opened up a shop in downtown Camden and did custom modifications/upgrades/wraps etc.
These late 50’s early 60’s 22” & 16” standard sized drums have a beautiful pink salmon/Rose? marine pearl wrap which glistens & the pics don’t do justice. The head hardware is all standard Ludwig mini/large classic lugs/ T-handles original to the drums. The bass drum comes original hoops with a Rogers swivelmatic mount. I have the mating Rogers Tom mount ready for any rack tom you may wish to convert.
The bass drum has 1 replacement spur of the two. The bass drum has its cymbal mount as well.
The floor tom has old style the vertical tension legs which are engraved w both wfl and Ludwig logos. Also the tom has a fully functioning two cushion mute.
Drums were gone over w a fine tooth comb….they have all new heads. All hardware was tightened/lubricated.
You will need to tweak and tune to your specs.
Don’t miss this opportunity with obtaining over 60 year old New Jersey Drum history! Asking $1150
I may consider a trade for a very cool USA made vintage guitar.
