--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------DESCRIPTION OF ITEM FOR SALE AND MODE OF SALE.
This listing is for the 14" Gretsch Custom Classic Concert Tom, circa 1972 It is a factory original tom, with its original paper Gretsch tag inside it (see photo) indicating it's style number and serial number. The drum has the proprietary , silver-coat treatment on the inner portion of the shell, with the early 1970's stop sign badges with the elongated "T" in the word "Gretsch" on the exterior.. It has its original die cast hoop . The shell is maple, poplar maple. Maple on the interior and exterior. The drum IS IN FACTory original condition, used of course, with their original die cast hoops, but for the replacement of the original Gretsch mount with a Ludwig mount, . (Substituting mounts was not uncommon back in the day)
The 14" tom is Model Number 4442, serial number 29480, DRUM HAS FACTORY INTERIOR Gretsch application. All original lugs . There are 8 lugs on the 14" tom as opposed to 6 on the smaller ones. $199.00 FOR THIS VINTAGE CLASSIC.! Reasonable best offers within this price range will be considered. All drums are in round, tune well, hold tune, and are thin shelled and very resonant. All drum shells are in tact. My intent originally was to fully sand down the lacquer off all the drums, and apply a gloss clear finish to the beautiful maple exteriors. I began that process years ago, but never finished it, instead opting to play the set . Depending on the genre of music I was playing, to record, gig, or otherwise, these toms are in your face bold. They are easily tuned, and you can tune them to a broad sonic range. The Gretsch concert toms have very thin three ply shells, that are incredibly resonant. There is no to little wear on the bottom edges of these drums. The Gretsch drums appear to have a bearing edge on their bottom edge. There is no chipping or damage. Bearing edges top or bottom are in fine shape.
This is a vintage stop sign, elongated T badge 1972 three ply Gretsch classic 14" x 10" deep relic that sounds and looks terrific.
