Members turdadactyl Posted June 15, 2009 Members Share Posted June 15, 2009 Sweet looking kit. You don't see vintage Yamahas very frequently. That being said...I wouldn't look at them as a collector's piece. I just don't think the market's there. As for whether they're good for you as a player, it depends. A 14" floor tom is tiny. These would be great for jazz, fusion, etc. While you can play anything on anything, these might not be so good if you're looking to play hard rock as you're not going to get that low end out of them. Cool kit. Up to you whether you want 'em. I personally would try to talk him down to about $400...and I'm just pulling that out of my ass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members johnrobbsmusic Posted June 15, 2009 Author Members Share Posted June 15, 2009 i'm gonna try to talk him down, and i'm gonna buy them and leave them at my church for contemporary stuff, it would be small enough that it would be more out of the way than my 7 piece..

Members johnrobbsmusic Posted June 15, 2009 Author Members Share Posted June 15, 2009 just got done talking to one of my friends.....he bought one of these in Topeka w/cymbals for 350 :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Thomas G Posted June 15, 2009 Members Share Posted June 15, 2009 Well, it sure does look pretty. If you can talk him down, it'll probably be a really good deal. Actually, $500 doesn't sound too unreasonable to me at all, but what do I know? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members 2xBass Posted June 15, 2009 Members Share Posted June 15, 2009 All I know is that that finish is awesomly mesmerizing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
