Hey, is this a faded Sparkling Burgundy Pearl??? I've confirmed that it's a 67 and that the wrap is original. Curious. I may pick this one up if it is. Let me know.

Very cool! You and I have picked some of the harder to find wraps this week, and mine happen to be on a much higher quality kit than I am used to seeing. I feel this one could bring close to Slingerland duckets...I like that Burgundy Sparkling Pearl, it is so cool looking. Is it faded really badly, or just an (un)healthy coat of nicotine patina?

And my new friend, OkieBob, is allowing me to get together the funding for the blus sparkle Ludwig Combo he has with Pioneer snare, and I will of course keep the boys 14" Floor tom....and since he had the 16 all along that originally came with my sons' Majestics, I now have a complete kit for sale, as soon as I have all the funds in place for the Ludwigs, and it will have a floor tom to make it, in proper sizes at least, a full on Club Date. Most people will not know thw the floor tom is incorrect for the kit, and far be it from me to say anything, unless necessary.
