Hi all - thanks in advance for your input

Probably a newbie question, but when looking at 60's and 70's Gretsch kits, is there a difference in quality / value between different models? On Ebay and Craigslist, sellers don't always list what model their drums are, and I can't tell if there were professional vs. student lines, and which ones those were.

There's an unmodified 70's Gretsch kit in Walnut finish that someone is selling nearby for $1100, and based on the catalogs I've seen online, it could possibly be an early 70's studio or recording kit, or a later 70's Blackhawk. I'm waiting for more info and pictures, but want to know if it even matters which kit it is, as far as quality and value are concerned. $1100 seems like a very good price for this kit, so I'm probably going to get it.

Thanks everybody
