Hey all,
Anybody heard of these? I had a kit fall into my hands the other day and I'm wondering if investing in new heads would be a waste of money. They are a student level set but I'm wondering if, with a little TLC, they could be made good enough to gig with.
It looks as if they are out of business (no website) but Woodbrass here in France is, apparently, still selling them. Seven ply poplar, 45 degree bearing edges... here is the page: http://www.woodbrass.com/BATTERIE+CAPELLE
A web search didn't turn up much. They made a crazy deep double bass drum kit in the 80's, and also apparently made drums for Orange.
Any opinions?
