RARE Tama Artstar 1 Birds Eye Maple Drum Set kit!!
Up for sale is a highly sought after and rare Tama Artstar 1 with birds eye
maple wood drum kit.
I have not seen , talked , or heard of anyone other than
Billy Cobham having one of these kits or a single person outside of Japan who has or owned one. Possibly the only one in north america. They only produced this kit in a short time frame in 1986. Even if you found one in japan the shipping and imports costs are very high. Even then you dont see the full kits for sale.
So here is your chance to own one of the rarest tama kits ever made . They sold the birds eye snares in north america but I dont know a single person with a full kit.
Sizes: 22x16, 10x9,12x11,13x12,16x16
The drums overall look great. They have some expected normal wear as expected with some marks / cosmetics on each drum here and there. Some oxidation on the chrome lugs and hardware. Beautiful high end birds eye maple drums.
See all pictures for general condition. As with photo limitations and being a used product there is expected cosmetics from being a used item so ask any questions before purchasing.
Include floor tom legs and a double tom mount. See all pictures for general condition.
I have been passionate about the Artstar 1 line for a while and developed a huge collection over the years. I have decided some of the kits are not being played so best to share with some other drum enthusiasts.
I also have a framed magazine of Billy Cobham with his kit I will include with the purchase and I hope to keep in touch with the buyer.
