I am loving this new set..I have wanted one for a long time..Finally!! I couldn't afford the snare unfortunately....The guy who sold me these sold that separately for around 650.00 U.S.

Nice looking lumber. How about some specs, sizes, age etc.

Oh yeah! Oops! Sorry forgot to mention that! 18 x 14 Bass 12 x 7.5 or 8' (not sure exactly) Mounted Tom and a 14' x 14' floor... I believe this set is from the 80's from what I have been reading...

I had the opportunity to play a similar set for a while at the beginning of the nineties, and it was powerful, precise and full-bodied. I also perfectly remember I did try a huge double set with power toms and was impressed by its tremendous power and bottom end.
At least here in Europe these rosewood sets were mainly used in jazz situations, but I also remember fusion and rock cats using them.
Nice kit, you're lucky! Enjoy!
