***SCOTTISHPOWER DRUMS FOR SALE*** ScottishPower Pipe Band is selling a set of lovely Premier Drums, consisting of 14 Snares, 7 Tenors and a Bass. The drums are only two years old. They were played by the ScottishPower Drum Corps during the '17 and '18 seasons, including at the band's winning performance at this year's British Championships. They have been extremely well looked after and are in mint condition. The sound of these drums is just fantastic and they look superb too with a neutral and classy finish that would go with pretty much any colour scheme. For more details, please get in touch with Jake direct to himself via private message or by email to jake.joergensen@gmail.com Feel free to share this post if you think any of your contacts may be interested.
