Ich bin mal so frei, und schreibe diese Nachricht von Paul Mason (Tempus) hier in den Thread rein:
Ich hab vor ein paar Jahren über diesen Weg auch meine Snare bekommen - für deutlich weniger Geld als normal 
-----------------------------
Hi All,
It may only be the beginning of January but it's already time for me to make arrangements for this year's Frankfurt MusikMesse Tempus display.
Towards that end and for those of you in Europe, my traditional offer; the display drums for any trade show at which I exhibit are made available for advance order/purchase at an additional 10% off regularly discounted prices and are also shipped with prepaid freight; so, if any of you in Europe has been considering having a Tempus set or snare drum custom-built this would be a very good opportunity.
So, to re-cap:
- you order whatever you want
- I extend show discount pricing
- I build the drums, send them over and pick up the freight tab to Frankfurt
- the drums are seen and heard by thousands ( and played by a select few ) during the MusikMesse
- the drums also end up in dozens of MusikMesse pictorials
- once the Messe concludes the drums are sent to you ( Europe only! ), again with pre-paid freight
- you own a little tiny piece of Tempus history 
And to pre-emptively answer a question which has been asked quite a few times in previous years about the Frankfurt MusikMesse display offer, no, there's no restriction on the kind of finish which might be suitable. And the kit itself doesn't have to be a 4 pc. It doesn't even have to be right handed.
It'll be sitting among sets by both Craviotto and Dunnett so I have no particular problem with the idea of not blending in... 
So, if you're interested please contact me directly at masontempus@gmail.com
Ciao,
PFM
