Took an extended break for Christmas, but I had a good time with my family. I even got a chance to play around with my dad's acoustic drum kit. A dirty, spider-webbed, beat up kit, that had no cymbal stands but an acoustic one nonetheless. Everything sounded decent with a little tweaking, too. Except the snare. That snare is in bad shape. So, what do I do? I ask my dad if I can take it home to clean up. He said yes. So, now I have a fun new project. I also took some dirty cymbals home as well. My dad is not a drummer and just bought this old dirty kit from someone on craigslist. I don't know why, but I know he doesn't have the time to clean and fix it up. My thinking is, if I can clean it up he might be able to sell the kit for a bit more than what he paid for it. The snare is really the only problem, the toms and kick just need their drumheads popped off, insides vacuumed, and the outer parts cleaned. If I had a house, I probably would have just bought the kit from him, but I'm in an apartment and don't have the space nor do I want to receive noise complaints. So, I'm just gonna clean it up as best as I can and return it (after I do research of the proper way to clean drums).
