Hello Drummer World! First post...
I've had my custom built DW drum kit for about 4 years now but I've recently been accepted for endorsement from SJC Drums, so I am going to be selling the kit. I bought the kit from a former DW endorser (currently plays with GUN) at a discounted price however I'm lead to believe that a kit like this is worth a lot due to the way the shells were constructed back then (1996 it was built) and it's shells are also 3mm thicker than standard. I've contacted DW about the kit and all they could say was "You have a late 90’s DW kit that is sought out by a lot of DW drummers, the shells that were made in the late 90’s are different than they are now because we use the SSC config for a lot of sets when customers order them. Hope this helps!"
I've uploaded some photos of the kit to this album - http://photobucket.com/danny6060dwdrumkit . In short, I'm asking for a value on the kit so I can move it on. It's been gigged so has a few dings and bumps. Any information would be great!
Thanks,
Danny Kelly
