Vintage Gretsch drums - Vibrant Blue Sparkle International Ship
Estimated price for orientation: 575 $
Category: Other Drums
Class:
Description
14 X 20 and 8 X 12 vintage Gretsch Kit with stunning blue sparkle wrap. Probably late 50's or 60's. They have grey painted interiors and orange tags with close serial numbers. Sparkle is vibrant and chrome is very shiny. Bass wrap has a few very minor scratches and 2 pencil point nicks represented in the pictures. They look great and sound even better with nearly new heads. The bass drum was drilled for 2 rail consolettes and was told this was a factory custom order by the previous owner. Hardware covering 2nd set certainly looks original vintage but experts opinions are welcomed. I am not so knowledgeable on vintage Gretsch drums. I have tried to include photographs depicting all details as the pics are part of my description. What you see is what you get. One set of drum hoops, bass legs and bass tensioners are original but different from each other and the bass hoops are missing the blue inlay. Parts would be easy and cheap to find to restore. Winner will receive well packed items shipped within 2 days of payment. Shipping cost listed is for lower 48 USA and the eBay international ship center only. International ship rates from there are not included in this auction. I also cannot report a lower price than selling price, sorry. Please ask before bidding, due to cost I cannot accept returns on these rare drums. More pics available upon request. Good luck and thanks for looking!
