Wow, Mike both the school and you are winners. That was a fun video to watch, and that last drum you did, the one you stained turned out beautiful. Nice job on the drums and nice job on the video. Thank you for sharing your work with us.
I agree, given the complications with public schools selling equipment, giving it away is much more simple, and I made sure to make it worth their while.
I have a 70's supraphonic I bought in 1985 and it's still my favourite sounding snare drum 🥁
That’s a life partner drum right there
As a current collector and player/Restore guy,I couldn’t help but love this.I was recently lucky to find an original Ludwig black galaxy pearl 3 ply super beat kit from 63.It needed tons of TLC but I got it looking new again. Thanks
Nice! Glad you enjoyed it.
make an entire drum set using the marching snares
Ha, that would be something!
Those red and silver snares look gorgeous, would love to have one, but pretty rare over here.
Depending where you, I still have one left to get rid of!
@@malonedrum Very kind! How is the drum in shape and how much would be shipping to Germany?
@@tobiaswinter1358 very expensive, I looked into Europe prior. Hundreds
@@malonedrum probably not worth it, but thanks anyway!
Making a Snom would be a fun project, with some rounded baring edges to give a big beefy sound!
For sure!
“ A “ for effort and patience..
You must have a great passion for doing that…
Well done..
It helps when it’s hired work, but yes, takes a lot of patience to get through this level of quantity.
Awesome work. Another great video. I would have kept that 70s chrome snare from Ludwig. Always liked those ones.
Good choice!
Great video! Perfect work getting all of those classic Ludwig's way more years in music and more importantly inspiring young musicians in playing music.
I have a early 62' Ludwig Supra with the old throw off on, it's still working well.
Again great video thank you.
💙🎼
Thanks for the kind words, glad you enjoyed it.
Cool video, I love these old drums. So much history and character.
Thanks! Agreed.
Thank you for the video. You answered a lot of question I had about a Acrolite I'm refurbishing. Coincidentally I got my ludwig from a school I work for. Cheers.
Best place to source old Acrolites and Supraphonics.
I definitely wanna buy 2 of them 😩
Send me a message, still have a couple left!
I like a good ol P85, but yeah always seem to be replacing them...I'll have to check out the P88. The old field drums make cool 15" floor toms, and with the new trend, you could keep the snare part, have have a snom (snare/tom) for a left side drum or something.
Yes, the P88 is great, and the snom is a fun trend.
I would love to purchase one of those marching snares
Sorry, all gone!
Nice. You can use the INDe Universal Butt Plate on the Acro to replace the P32. Mine fits fine and works great.
Is that a new butt plate? When I bought my Inde throw years ago, it came with a single point mounted butt plate.
@@malonedrum It's been around for a few years maybe. It has adjustable hole spacing.
@@AmyDrums that’s news to me, was hoping to have something like that when I was initially replacing my own Luddys
Here's the throw off I used for this video: amzn.to/3Qxa6JA
Ah the life of a working drummer. You may be able to sell those marching snare drums to another high school to use as practice drums. In our high school we used different drums to march with and newer much better drums to perform with. Very cool video.
They were not that hard to pass on. Pretty desirable.
Are use Chapstick for the tension rods on my drums. It works good and pleasant. Smells good too. I also use tiger balm. It works real good.
Interesting
Do you still have one of those snare drums wood trade you for one
@@stephenreynolds624 No
I had a white pearl lyra kit identical to the one you have.
Oh, very cool!
I’m just now seeing your video do you have anymore of these left to sell. Nice job on the reconditioning of the marching drum love the stain color. Thanks for the video
They’re all gone, but still the memory lives on in this video!
Great video. I would comment on my success with the P86 over the P88. I think it’s more practical and even looks better (IMHO).
Those are pretty good too!
amazing video mike thank u !
Glad you liked it!
@@malonedrum yeah!! the black acro its amazing jejeje
Still have any of the marching snares left ?
Nah, long gone now.
Wow!
Good way to describe it.
Mike did you see the matching 26 kick drum I have to those on drumforum?
I have not, but that’s super cool!
I could use one of those marchers to convert to a floor tom
@@dye182 I have one left, send me an email. Some inquiring, so probably won't be available too long.
@@malonedrum I’ll message ya on drumforum
@@dye182 feel free to send me an email at malonedrum@gmail.com to get it done faster. Have a few interested in the final one left!
What do you use on bearing edges?
It's Drum Dial Bearing Edge Conditioner. I have a video about it: th-cam.com/video/0eLyuSnIYa0/w-d-xo.html
Yeah, that school wasted a load of money. How much did all that come to? Was it you that talked them into getting new strainers? Lol. I dunno, those p85s are good enough.
Hi Alan, and thanks for your insightful and thoughtful comment.
I would say my justification throughout the video what I choose to do and why would explain that it was on my advice, but maybe you didn’t watch that closely.
P85s were a standard issue throw that did their job for decades, but in the world of constant abusive by students and schools on instruments, the newer P88 has been a wonderful upgrade to keep these amazing shells holding steady for decades to come.
@@malonedrum yeah, I have a couple of snares with the p85. There's nothing wrong with them. I wouldn't replace one unless they were completely broken. The p85 gets a bad rap, but there's nothing wrong with them as a throw off. Those ones seemed OK to me. Will you sell them on behalf of the school? Because there is some value to them.
@@alanduncan1980 I keep a variety of spare parts around for projects, and repairs.
@@malonedrum well, you know what I think. I think you just finagled a bunch of spare parts for yourself. I think you're the main benefactor in all of that, but more power to you. There are suckers everywhere. Not me though, my bs detector is finely tuned. 🙂
Good video anyways, man.
Snare/Tom?
Good idea!
Sell them...Old Ludwig has great prices here in Europe
That is the route I have been going with them. Too many projects on the docket to also stockpile these!
