circa 1963 Gretsch Progressive Jazz 4 piece !

Moving to the big city ( building a new house with our daughter ) . Since I no longer will be able to play acoustic drums in the house because of neighbors a couple of arms' length away I am forced to part with virtually all of my drums and cymbals inc. this pristine Gretsch Progressive Jazz set .

I bought this from Cherie at Repercussions about 12 years ago and it has never left the drum studio next door to our house here in the boonies ( where I can play anytime I want ) .

Factory matched kit with serial numbers all 2**** . I can't find a scratch on the entire kit and I have looked hard . Don't think one could find a cleaner set from this era .

The hoops were repainted at some point I believe - just too perfect . But who knows ?

The l-arm is a re-pro but everything else is original except heads - wait - the reso head IS original .

I'll be uploading new pics within the next 24 hours . This was taken a few years ago in my drum studio .

$ 4900 + Express shipping from Japan . Set would have to be packed before I could give exact quote , but I would estimate $ 450 .

Payment would have to be made by bank wire - no Paypal .

I have excellent references .

And two of the snare . Come with Gretsch Key and the heavy t bar wrench to tighten the tom holder ( pic on top of floor tom ) .

She really is a beauty , but apparently with shipping from Japan too expensive . I'm going to put on auction here in Japan soon .
