I got a great deal on a 1966 Super Classic in Champagne sparkle for 300. It came with a matching snare (from 1971) and a matching canister throne.
The ad had one very poorly taken photo. I happened to be the first caller and went right over. The drums looked like total crap from dirt, storage, and neglect. I wasn't sure if they would even be playable, but I figured it was worth the chance.
After a novus cleaning and replacing some missing hardware (tom mount), and repainting the hoops, the drums look brand new. No fading, no extra holes, and all in-round. The snare is one of the best sounding snares I have.
