Recommendations for a Vintage-savvy drum shop in Nashville

Posts: 70 Threads: 21

Can anyone make a recommendation for a drum shop in Nashville that is well versed in vintage drums?

I posted pictures a while back of an awesome Gretsch RB 3 ply set that belongs to a friend. It's a long story but I am about to send these to him. He lives near Nashville and is not at all familiar with vintage drums, but needs a few things. I would like to be able to recommend he visit a shop that:

a) Knows the anomalies associated with vintage drums (importance of originality, small vintage cymbal hole sizes etc.)

b) Won't take him for a ride (e.g. "Oh nobody wants those old K Zildjians anymore, I'll trade you for some new Cannons")

c) will actually be helpful

Thanks
