Pea Turgh Posted October 1, 2021 Author Posted October 1, 2021 So this “orphan” drum kit idea has now turned in to more of a “jelly bean” kit, as I bought a white 60’s Olympic kick drum! What with the two blue toms and the red snare, I think it looks quite cool. Now on the hunt for some vintage Super Zyn cymbals to complete it! 4 Quote
kingforaday Posted October 1, 2021 Posted October 1, 2021 Love it, good work tracking it all down! you can always add to it or swap bits out as you find more… but for what it’s worth I like the jellybean kit look! 1 Quote

The standard Zyns weren’t much cop apparently. Supers is where it’s at! Just bought a Super Zyn ride. Mrs Turgh will not be happy 😬 Quote
Jakester Posted October 2, 2021 Posted October 2, 2021 (edited) 😅 TBH I didn’t like the Super Zyns either, but hope you like yours! Edited October 2, 2021 by Jakester Quote

Pea Turgh Posted October 8, 2021 Author Posted October 8, 2021 Interesting! Got the steel snare though - I prefer steel. Only really need the kick, but they don’t seem to come up. Going to concentrate on assembling some nice cymbals first, then got back to the ultimate shell combination. Just saw a Super Olympic kit on Facebook - dang, that’s nice; Quote
Huge Hands Posted October 8, 2021 Posted October 8, 2021 I've got a 60's Premier jazz kit in a similar brushed blue finish although I think it is a bit darker than yours. Has Super Zyns too! I never get to play it any more unfortunately. 1 Quote
Jakester Posted October 8, 2021 Posted October 8, 2021 Hah, looks like it's sold to a "dealer" - just wait for it to reappear a few weeks later for 5x the price! Quote
Pea Turgh Posted October 9, 2021 Author Posted October 9, 2021 So I folded - just bought a 12/14/20 mahogany shell pack! My current jelly bean collection is making its way to eBay listings 😂 3 2 Quote

Doctor J Posted October 20, 2021 Posted October 20, 2021 I saw this and thought of you 🙂 https://www.adverts.ie/drum-kits/1963-premier-drums-all-original-vintage-drum-kit-with-snare/25150915 1 Quote
