So, which is it guys? What brand is going to top off the list at most expensive bop kit:

This one is very cool with the swivomatic hardware set so you can play it as a righty or a lefty.
Oops, link seems to have failed me. Anyway, tangerine Gretsch 28,12,14 with 4x14 snare for $13500 on eBay. The economy must be improving.

Sorry Dan you must mean 18,12,14. Funny thing is Jazz drummers are possibly the least able to afford those kind of sums. Even the ones we perceive at the top are still on modest pay for shows/tours. Who's going to be handing out that kind of cash on a drum kit? Probably the famous Rock drummers! lol
A 100% factory original Gretsch RB 18/12/14 kit has gotten top cash for years now and has not dropped and will probably never drop... a 100% factory original Oaklawn Camco has quickly becoming a strong contender in the vintage bop kit world also seeing high prices as well.
The Gretsch bop kit was played by many famous jazz drummer during the period and the Camco bop kit not so much but the sound and high craftsmanship speaks louder than words. Both are amazing jazz drum kits in low supply with high demand for years to come.
