I sold my Catalina Maples (secondary kit) and was going to buy a used Meridian Birch till i heard these Yammies..WOW this may become my primary kit as well (currently saturns). It is Chestnut stain standard sizes, born on date of 9/98.
Bought them from original owner and they are immaculate. They sound great and confirms my suspicions that I am a Birch man even though these are Birch/mahogany/Falkata combo. They have ec2's on top and G2's on bottom and sound fat as all get out.
Also the unported bass drum is a nice surprise. Paid $350 for em (shellpack no snare) Not a steal but not a ripoff either. Guy got laid off last month and really needs money, I could have tried to haggle down but I am fortunate to have a job now and can afford it so why not.
anyway onto the pics.

I love beauty posts like this. Great kit , Fair price, but best of all great attitude. Love the throne too.
Official cowbell hater.
Absolutely love the finish, it appears to be some type of brushed/stained look that is just dynamite. I see this done a lot on tables and chairs, and really shows off the wood quite well. It looks flawless, no scratches, dings, and goes well with your throne too. Love the lug design, they should bring this version back. Appears to be a rare finish or else a custom job, congrats on finding it.

Great looking kit you got there!..based on the finish and mounting system (non-Yess) that kit was probably made in the late 90's..so it's also in really nice shape...
Nice kit, I love the finish!

I really did not like the tom mounting system..GTS I think it's called. I found it hard to keep it in tune as well,although it was used so maybe that had someting to do with it. But I would tune it using a torque key then play 1 song and check it and it was wayyyy loose. This included the bass drum as well.
When it stayed in tune it was nice but like I have said I have recently concluded that I prefer Birch. The guys I play with did comment that they liked the sound of it but they also noticed the detuning. I probably could have bought new lugs but that gts system is just not for me and I personally will never buy another kit with it.

I agree with RHD. That's a really beautiful kit MDK, and even more so because of the compassion for someone down on their luck. Well done sir!
