@@volesrock they were in great condition under that dust!

👍🏻

Thank you!

Thank you! Me too!

It's a beautiful set! Thanks for watching man!

​@@shawnsdrumcaveNot trying to tell you what to do but I think it should have a permanent place in the collection. It really stands out amongst all the other kits.... maybe not a first choice as a player but a *great* conversation piece.

This set looks and sounds awesome. My first kit was a Fibes Crystalite kit that included a 18” X 16” bass drum, 12” X 8” rack tom, & a 14”X 14” floor tom that had Ludwig mounting hardware. Unfortunately I never had the Fibes snare that came with it originally. When I traded it for my 80s 5 piece Pearl kit, I left a 2005 PDP 14” X 6 1/2” steel shell snare with it and kept my pure white wood shell Early 1980s Maxwin by Pearl snare that I had gotten with the Fibes kit because it sounds good and matches up well with my 1980s Pearl kit. Although the Fibes kit sounded really good, I felt limited by it and felt like it would be easier & more cost effective to expand the Pearl kit.

thanks for watching, Bobby was awesome! i just sold this set to his nephew roger who has the rest of his sets/drums.

@@shawnsdrumcave Cool!!

thank you! and awesome, i'm just south of the city and have family up in NH as well.

Right? Thanks 🙏

Thank you! 🙏

Thank you!

Thanks! 🙏 for sure, you will!

thank you!

That's awesome, this is my first fibes. Thank you and thanks for watching!

thank you!

Thank you 🙏

Thanks man 🙏

Thank you 🙏

thanks! i've noticed parts for them are $$ i found a sent of T rods for a reasonable price compared to others, luckily this was pretty complete. one floor tom bracket did have the key head screw broken off but i was able to get it out and replace it with a one i had kicking around. i have an idea what i'd want for it but what's your opinion on value/what it's "worth"? cool drums for sure, i may hang on to them but space is pretty tight right now lol thanks for watching!

@@shawnsdrumcave value on Fibes stuff is always weird. I see nice five piece kits for sale in the $1200 range and they sit for a long time without anybody buying them. on the other hand LUDWIG vistalite stuff sells like hotcakes because it’s more popular…. But the Ludwig stuff wasn’t really made as nice and cracks easier than Fibes do in my opinion and many others. For now, I’ve just been taking advantage of the fact that you can find cool restorable Fibes stuff on the cheap… And hoping that someday it becomes super valuable/Collectable

Thank you 🙏

That's cool! And thank you 🙏

Thanks! Not sure they're fiberglass are the same but I would think they are. I only use one rack tom and typically use a snare stand, I just set it up like this for the video. Honestly the tom mounts make me nervous, this set survived 40+ yrs, last thing I want is to be the one to crack something 🤣

Thanks brother! Yes I'm on Instagram under the same name shawn100011 or use the link on my channel page. You can PM me there (exchange numbers) i'm also on FB. I'm maybe 45 min from you, south of Boston. I'm always up for cool stories and exchanges of ideas. Thanks for watching!

Thanks brother!

Thanks 🙏 I don't come across many either!

Thanks brother 🙏

Thank you!

Thanks for watching!

Ty!

I saw that! Billy cobham had a huge set too! Thanks! And that's for watching!

I saw Bobby Chouinard drumming for Gary Moore back in the 80’s I remember him being a very solid hard hitter ! I think he was playing his Pink Ludwig kit that night from his Billy Squier days again beautiful drums

@@fabianpaicefan157 that's awesome! his nephew roger has that pink kit! his playing on all those classic Squier records was perfect for the music!

Thanks brother! 🙏

Not hard to tell where I'm from 🤣 thanks for watching man!

Thank you!

Oh it's on! Trying to hunt down some parts for it, unfortunately the wrap is not in the greatest shape but I'm gonna do my best to salvage it and get it to player grade anyways lol thanks brother!

@@shawnsdrumcave Can't wait to see the video once it's done. What parts are you looking for? I might know a guy...

@@timbofromkeno 12" hoop, 14" hoop 20" with a inlay or some scraps I can make an inlay out of, 1 bass drum lug, a rail mount and a set of T rods & claws. Hopefully without second mortgaging my house haha player grade stuff would be ideal for a reasonable price. I almost thought about punting it as a project instead of getting to deep into parts on it but i think im going to see this through and bring it back the best I can. Lol thanks bud! I appreciate it! Im on the insta under the same shawn100011 if you need to message me.

Thank you!

🙏

Good eye man! It is the one I was looking for but for the green sparkles. I was almost positive I had one kicking around and in fact almost bought another one when it was right behind me on my black cortex set the whole time 🤣 thanks for watching!

Yup! Thanks for watching!

thank you, no this is the first Fibes set for me, they don't pop up that often in my area. i'd really like to check out the fiberglass ones like yours! thanks for watching!

Thanks man! It's complete and probably does but nope, it's just yard art lol

@@shawnsdrumcave still very cool.

Nope, the plastic razor blade didn't scratch it at all. That combined with the wd did the trick! I agree, that's exactly what I thought, sonor! Thanks 🙏

Unmistakable haha yes 1/2 out of the city in the burbs.

Yeah pretty unique from what I've seen! Thanks for watching!

🤣

thanks! Remo CS black Dots for the batter and REmo clear ambassadors for the reso's!

@@shawnsdrumcave how to tune them ? It so difficult... I have same drum and skins... And a tune bot

Thanks man 🙏

I've tried that in the past, it does work but these weren't really dented just a lot of dust and stick marks lol imo they have a lot of life left in them. Old days we rarely changed out heads until they were absolutely beat and they were cheap back then, not like now $50 to rehead a floor tom lol thanks for watching!

@@shawnsdrumcave thanks for fun content. Damn those drums are great. Envious AF.
