1980s Gretsch Bop in Walnut Lacquer - 14x18, 8x12, 12x14

An awesome player's Bop kit! These Square Badge Gretsch are incredibly sweet, save a couple of extra holes. Thee bass drum and floor tom appear to be born together, while the "floor tom" is actually a converted mounted tom (no extra holes though!). They feature most of the original Gretsch components we know and love. They have been cleaned and are ready to deliver that TONE.

14 x 18 - Overall very clean condition. Features 8x lugs, 16x claws & 16x tension rods, 2x matching bass drum hoops, 80's Gretsch tom mount, and 80's Gretsch bass drum spurs. There are 3 holes from a ride cymbal mount (or two). The finish is in great shape for the most part, smooth and glossy lacquer without much fading. Some usual nicks on the hoops from use. The chrome is overall in pretty good shape too with minimal pitting on the lugs and few scratches on the claws. 

8 x 12 - General good condition. Features mostly original hardware - 5 lugs per side, 10x tension rods, and 2x Die-Cast hoops. No mufflers. Someone did add a Ludwig Modular mount. Besides the large mount, the drum is pretty much original and is in great shape. Finish is similar to the bass drum - smooth and deep, with minimal scratching, fading, or checking. Chrome is pretty clean as well, with almost no pitting on the 12" hoops, and minimal pitting on the lugs. 

12 x 14 - This drum is a converted mounted tom rougher than the other two. There are no extra holes from the conversion (the drum was flipped and tom mount was used as a leg mount and 2x more were added). Drums features all Gretsch hardware - 16x lugs, 16x tension rods, 2x Die-Cast hoops, 3x Gretsch leg mounts & legs. The finish on this drum is rougher in general - definitely a lighter shade due to fading, and general light checking in the finish as well as general scratches throughout. The chrome shows wear too - general pitting on the hoops and lugs, as well as some light corrosion on the tension rods.
