    Tama Artstar 1 Cordia Candy Apple Red 5pc Drum Set kit  TAMA FACTORY  20 INCH KICK!!
    Custom ordered one of a kind!!  TAMA FACTORY original
    The kick is very rare ! Only a couple artstar version 1 20" inch kicks known in the world!!! The candy apple red finish is also hard to find. Neil Peart had the artstar candy apple red prototype kit at one point.
    Pretty amazing and great sounding set. The Artstar 1 line was the most expensive early 80's tama set.
    Some things to mention regarding the kit. its mostly original but not 100%. I restored it to as close to original as possible. The kick, 13 and the 12 are totally 100% original factory. The 16 and the 10" were cordia drums professionally repainted candy apple red to match. I am not sure what happened to the original 16 that likely came from the factory when this was ordered but it looks fine . Probably looks 90% paint match. The badges I had to reinstall on the 10 and 16 since they were not put on properly and while they look fine the aftermarket pins to connect the badges are a tad bigger than original but are very close . Still a great kit . So overall it still looks fine and is super rare in the 20 inch alone.
    Sizes: 20x18,10x9,12x11,13x12,16x16
    Due to the original artstar drums being only 16 inches deep and this being a 18 they had to use superstar bass lugs on the kick.
    Very Hard to find size and one of a kind!! !! I have never seen a candy apple red artstar kit for sale in north america. Only seen one orphan tom in 15 years (they do pop up but very rarely). I had a 10" tom years ago in this finish (maybe originally apart of this kit? ) but its a cool set!!
