"This Gretsch Rack Tom Set (Blue Sparkle 70's Rack & Floor) 13x9 & 14x13 is part of the private collection of J Mascis.

Gretsch Drums is an iconic American drum brand manufactured in Ridgeland, South Carolina. For more than 130 years, their award-winning company has been providing 'That Great Gretsch Sound' to drummers around the globe.

This set of Jasper shell tom's carries with it some history unlike most listings on J's store. These toms (13x19 and 14x13 respectively) have proven helpful on several records namely Green Mind and Where You Been (Dinosaur Jr.) and the Upsidedown Cross LP which J has made clear is his favorite record he has ever played on. Awesome! 70's Gretsch 'Stop Sign' USA badges.

Both drums carry a beautiful blue sparkle finish, are in round and ready to set up with your kit. There are several knicks and scrapes and one missing lug from the floor tom hit from years of shows and recordings but nothing that effect the functionality of these excellent drums. Heads are used and should be changed should you be looking to start recording with these. They have absolutely been well loved and used - The best sounding instruments often are.

Floor tom legs are NOT included. They will be shipping to you as photographed here in the listing. Get these pieces of indie rock today!"
