Going to look at used kit tomorrow . The limited info that I have so far with a few bad pics ( that I can’t even resize to post here) and some info my friend gave me is .........
Fairly new ( less than 2 years) concept maple 7 piece 8,10,12,14,16 ,14 snare, 22 kick in pearlescent white very clean in like new cond . Dw 3000 pedal and high hat stand
14” Zildjian A hats , 4 zildjian A cymbals in what I think are 16” thin crash, 16 med crash, 18” med crash , 20” med ride, and a 15” ZBT crash which isn’t really worth much to me . All mounted on a pdp rack with cymbal arms and clamp/arm for the 8” Tom. A DW tractor style throne . Look to be Remo coated on all toms ( not the originals I’m guessing ) , a white coated pdp by DW snare head , and a clear ( unknown) on the kick . A dozen or so ( unknown) new pairs of sticks and I’m told ... a plexi glass drum shield . There’s barely a stick mark on the heads or the cymbals. From what I can tell it’s all in great cond .
The asking price is $1,200 US. I’ve seen the used 7 piece concept maples go for 550 to 700 and more , depending on condition . They’re $999 new. I’ve seen Guitar center and Sam ash sell them for 700 with some marks and wear on em and from what I can gather this kit has nary a mark on it . With that said , if I apply a used price of 100 each ( low?) for basically unused A hats and 4 A cymbals that’s 5 bills right there . Add the kit , rack and hardware ( pedal and HH stand)?, throne , shield( don’t really need it ) sticks and possibly some other odds and ends for 700 and that’s 1200.
Sorry for the long book, but trying to give as much info as I’ve got at this point , and the guy selling ( it was his dads) doesn’t know much more and the kit is at his mothers house where he’s meeting me tomorrow ( little over an hour from me ), so don’t have much more to go on . Just got the info on this tonight at 10 and have been researching on line.
Assuming all above is accurate or close to accurate , does it sound like a good deal ? I think it’s a decent deal or at least in the ball park from the limited 2 hour research Ive done on line so far. . Seems like I always find these last minute (deals??) with not much time to research and decide/act.
Looking for you’re thoughts and opinions on the price and the gear . Thanks for any help you can offer .
