Gretsch Round Badge 'Name Band' Kit in Sillver Glass Glitter 20-16-13"

Here’s a beautiful vintage 1963 Gretsch Name Band shell pack in the classic Silver Glass Glitter finish. This configuration—20x14 bass drum, 13x9 rack tom, and 16x16 floor tom—is a quintessential vintage Gretsch setup from the early 1960s.

These drums have that unmistakable vintage Gretsch character: warm, full-bodied low end from the 22" bass drum, a lively and articulate 13" rack tom, and a deep, resonant 16" floor tom. The classic Silver Glass Glitter finish and chrome hardware give the kit an unmistakable early-'60s appearance that looks equally at home on stage, in the studio, or in a collection.

The 20x14, 13x9, and 16x16 combination is particularly appealing for players and collectors looking for that classic Gretsch sound and feel without going to an oversized configuration. Vintage Gretsch drums from this era are known for their distinctive tonal character, excellent tuning range, and legendary “Great Gretsch Sound.”

Condition

The drums are in vintage condition, with the expected cosmetic wear and signs of age. There is some separation in the wrap on the 13x9 rack tom, and the wrap on the 16x16 floor tom is beginning to separate slightly. The photos provide a great and accurate representation of the overall condition.

The kit retains its original drumheads, adding to its vintage character and authenticity. It also comes with the original cases, which is a great bonus for protecting and transporting these vintage drums.

This kit also comes with several vintage accessories:

• Camco bass drum pedal
• WFL snare drum stand
