Vintage Custom Made 1 of a Kind Solid Teak Drum Set Rogers Hardware Ludwig Head

Description

I've spent most my life dealing in antiques and instruments. Rare item's for a rainy day. Well boys and girls. It's pouring outside and it's time to share these with the world !
Vintage Custom Made Solid Teak Drum set
Feast your eyes on this one of a kind drum set! Each shell is solid Grade A 3/4" Teak. Very expensive! ( The material cost to build a matching Bass Drum with vintage hardware is approx. 00.00. Labor not included ) Each shell is joined in equal width sections. I can't imagine the countless hours spent to build this kit. The hardware used is vintage Rogers. Other accessories not shown are a vintage Rogers HiHat stand with common cymbals. A 2nd stand with cymbal (not Rogers) and a drum seat. Overall condition it looks fantastic but there are areas of abrasions and scratches in the wood. Fortunately due to the rich color of teak. Most imperfections disappear when lemon oil applied. The 16x18  has 4 visible mounting holes. (see photo) Bass drum has one section that has come partially unglued. (it closes easily so should be an easy fix) Approx. sizes of the set consists of:
12" x 8"
12" x 10"
13" x 11"
13" x 13"
16" x 16"
16" x 18"
24" x 22"
Unfortunately through the passages of time. The identity of this talented person who built this set has been lost. The back story is vague but from what was told to me is the set was hand built by a recognized and established drummer from NYC who challenged himself to build a set that was equal or better than the most expensive drum sets. I surmise the set was built in the 1970s based on the hardware. If your a collector. This would certainly be one of the more interesting sets in your collection.
I'm not a drummer but when I saw this set I was immediately drawn to the unique build, craftsmanship and beautiful wood. The drums are quite light considering the 3/4" solid shell. Teak is a light weight wood and bullet proof to weather and humidity. This is solid teak, NOT veneer. If I had a room to display this set. I wouldn't be selling.  If you were to build a replica of this set. Material and labor would set you back around 10K. Wish I acquired these before Neil Peart passed to share with him.
