Hey OldSchool! A beautiful Downbeat kit! The finish looks more like Champagne Sparkle. Is it just the lighting?

Hi, Mark!

Thanks for the kind words. I appreciate them! I initially thought that the wrap was Champagne Sparkle, too. Then I put one of the drums next to an actual Champagne Sparkle drum that I've got and I could see the difference immediately. It's definitely "aged" sparkling gold.

once the brass ceases to glitter, and the drum looses its luster, and the stage remains dark, all you have left is the timbre of family.
