Tama Artstar 1 Cordia 13x12 Vintage 80’s Tom Drum !!

Cordia and Birch wood!! From the early to mid 80’s!!

Condition wise this drum is in fair condition is selling it cheap

It has scratches and scuffs on the shell. The tom mount bracket is also aftermarket. There is also oxidation on the chrome / hardware and some rust from storage. See pictures for condition. The chrome could use some polish but has pitting.

Tama Artstar Cordia Black 5pc Drum Set kit 10,12,13,16,24 Birch + Cordia!!

These were the highest end Tama drum model when they came out in the early 80’s . Great quality Cordia and Birch wood. Sought after and not too many for sale under 2k that are 5+ pieces.

Overall I would say this kit is in pretty good condition for its age and looks better then some of the Artstar Cordia kits I have seen out there. For a 45 year old kit I would rate it as very good. Its used so there is a couple normal marks / scratches on each drum and normal wear. Things like some normal rub spots on the bass drum hoops from age. A couple marks on the top of the bass. See pictures for general condition.

Sizes:
24x16 bass drum
10x9 (hard to find size with these kits)
12x11 tom
13x12 tom
16x16 Floor Tom

All the tom heads have Aquarian Studio X batters. Includes a original 80’s double tom arm as pictured plus a single tama arm with attachment clamp (not the one pictured) in addition to the floor tom legs. I also have some used drum bags i can include for free to help protect them during shipment but I normally dont do much stacking to protect them (maybe stack 1 at most).

Please allow 1 or 2 extra business days to ship. I usually can ship next day but on occasion it may take me a little extra time for bigger kits. Signature required for insurance .

This is probably the weirdest kit I have put together but while I have these sizes just thought it would be a fun picture to post. Too bad they are different brands.

23” bass drum , with a 11” and 15” tom. All odd sizes

Does anyone know of someone who has an all odd sized kit?

Thanks to my friend Pablo Visca for helping me set everything up for this , Troy for help with some of the drums, and KJ for helping me get some of the drums from japan.
