Old Duco Gretsch tom and accessories Last viewed: 6 hours ago

Posts: 29 Threads: 8

Just found a nice old Gretsch 6.5x14 Snare drum digging through an estate sale attic.

Also came with a 12" Tom and some accessories I was hoping to get some information on.

The 12" Tom has no rims or lugs and has no additional holes. Looks to be the original badge.

Did a lot of digging through ebay completed listings but found no real info.

The cymbal arm and woodblock holder and both built extremely well.

Wondering if anyone know if these are authentic pieces or possible asian made.

More photos to come.

The snare is a beaut, all original. Cleaning it up now, will post more photos when it is complete.

Those cowbells look sweet...let us know what you think of them.....
