Here we have none other than an ORIGINAL Billy Gladstone 6x14" Snare Drum in Black Lacquer Finish with Chrome Hardware!
This drum has an interesting history. Both Steve Maxwell and Harry Cangany owned this drum at one point. Harry had acquired the drum from Chet Falzerano, noted Gladstone expert. This drum was unfinished when Billy died. Chet acquired the parts (excluding the strainer and rims) from the same person from whom he purchased the S.L. Beimel Gladstone kit. He later found rims, and then acquired an original Gladstone shell from Dick Koff in 1993. Dick knew Gladstone but didn't order a drum from him. He found this shell sometime after Billy passed away. Chet contacted Arnie Lang, another noted Gladstone expert and builder of the Lang/Gladstone replicas. Arnie has built Lang/Gladstone replicas for 10 years, making the molds for the parts from his own original Gladstone snare drum. Arnie supplied the strainer and the nameplate that has Chet's name on it!
