Antwort auf: Lug Identification von Troy Hubbard am 01 Juli, 2005 um 04:34:40:
Hello Troy,
Trixon used the black casings in 1963/64 then they turned to the grey ones.
Trixon used on the bass drum and the floor tom the bigger badges. Sometimes the bass drum had also a little badge. There is no contradiction. Trixon used 2 badges in different sizes but the same shape.
Do you have photos of the drums?
What colour is the Luxus kit?
Best regards,
Ingo
: Hello,
: I recently picked up a Trixon, (of course)Luxor kit. It was complete except for the floor tom bottom lugs and hoop.
: Earlier that same week, I picked up what I thought were Japanese drums, covered in red velvet. The price was right, $25 bucks, and the drums were two 20 inch basses, a Star snare, and the 16 floor tom.
: The drums were all Japanese, but the floor tom was a Trixon, in a black lacquer. The badge is bigger than the Luxor set, and the plastic lug casings are black instead of the grey as on the Luxor kit.
: It is pretty weird to even see Trixon here in Southern Indiana, not at least two!
: When did Trixon use the different colored lug casings?
: Why is the orphan floor tom badge bigger than the Luxor kits'?
: By the way, on the Gold Sparkle kit, there are adhesive tags by the air holes stating 'Made in Germany'.
: Thanks,
: Love and Peace,
: Troy
