About This Listing

2-piece nickel-over-brass shell, COS hoops, 6 Gretsch Broadkaster rocket lugs, and a W&A snare stand from the period. Lugs don’t look great, but they’re completely functional. No big issues with the shell, as noted in pics. No extra holes. Some surface rust on the hoops, and a little on the tension rods, etc. Stand is a little rusty, but straight and functional. Snare butt plate missing the back plate, so I did a little creative stringing (see pic). I have the back plate (pictured), but one of the screw holes is stripped, so it’s non-functional. Will include it with the drum, for what it’s worth. This little piece of history sounds and plays great. Please take a look at the video of it. Other than the brand and the fact that most of the parts seem original (W&A used the Gretsch lugs on many of their drums), I don’t know much about this model. Searched the internet and found nothing of consequence. I’m guessing 1930s, but if anybody can enlighten me as to the exact age or other details, please do. Thanks for looking.
