Score.įor the build, I had in mind a vintage-style wrap, vintage mahogany shells, vintage everything. They told me about their endorsement program. Ready to get started on a kit, I contacted C&C, and told them about Antennas Up. So why the hell didn’t I have a C&C kit yet? Turns out C&C builds their drums just barely north of Kansas City. Even if I did find a great vintage kit, would I really want to take it on the road, or would I just want to admire it as it sits in a climate-controlled glass case? To be fair, there are some great, piss-free, vintage drums for sale out there, but to me, the market was a minefield. I was seconds away from pulling the trigger on a vintage Slingerland kit on eBay until I found out from the seller that the floor tom hardware was rusty because it had been pissed on. To say the least, most fifty-year-old drums are not in top shape. I had been looking for an old Rogers or Ludwig for some time but was getting tired of dealing with all the hassle that comes with vintage drums. He was telling me that they built him a blue sparkle kit in the same vein as an old Ludwig he had. He says that they have finished drumkits for Ringo Starr, and that they’re just generally awesome folks to work with.īen, drummer of Denver band Meese (watch for them), gets crackin’ on a kit from C&C. At a show in Lawrence, Kansas, Jordan, then drummer of Oliver Future, now drummer of the Relentless 7, gets to telling me about C&C drums.
