That looks like something out of the Pearl USA 1978 catalog, judging from the tom mounts, bass drum spurs, and the lugs. Pearl drums at that time were either 9-ply wood shells (not sure what wood), or fiberglass shells, or fiberglass-lined 9 ply wood shells. If yours are Thunder Kings with wood shells, that would make them the top of the mid-level range, something like a Vision VMX today.

Is the set yours? Is that the actual picture? Its looks to be in very good shape. If you have any plans of selling it, I suggest you keep it and enjoy it instead. It doesn't have that much of a pedigree as other more storied drums from that time, so I doubt you could sell it at a high price. But it is a really nice set. I have an early 70's Thunder King (check out my posts elsewhere), and I absolutely still love it. It is loud and raunchy. The bass drum is not that great, but the toms sound nice, and the snare is a blast. I'm not sure how well it would do in recordings, but it is great for live playing. I don't plan on selling my Thunder Kings ever, because they are just too much fun. If you do plan to sell yours, give me a call first

looks like a regular export with mahogany shells, consistent din yung lug design na ginamit sa mga export. weird lang yung single post na tom holder sa bass drum, wala pa ko nakitang pearl na ganyan na gumaya sa rogers-style na hardware (na ginaya lang din tama, yamaha). merong single post ang pearl pero hindi tubo, kundi yung hexagonal bar na common sa pearl president.

iba din yung lugs ng thunder king



*ooops meron ngang pearl na single tom hehehe

anyway, kung ano man na model sya. hindi ko gagamitan ng double ply heads yan kasi matigas ang tunog nyan. boxy para sa iba pero muffled para sa kin. coated ambassadors sa toms para medyo mabuhay

Kung ano man yan... ASTIG YAN MEN!!!!

ahh ganun ba. wala talaga akong alam sa drums eh  gusto ko lang malaman , baka kasi nagkamali ako ng bili e hehehe , gusto ko sana gamitin sa jazz na tugtugan pero mukang napansin ko na karamihan ay cymbals hindi toms sa mga jazz na drummer tama bako?

[drumachine]

ganun ba yun sir peeves?

what if pag hindi gaano kagandahan ang shells? anong skin kaya? puro over tone kasi yung gamit ko sa church kya naglalagay ako ng muffler tpos hinahati ko yung orig size ng muffler.

nasa isip ko na bumili ng pinstripe of other thik skins.. ayos lang po kaya  yun?
