Very cool Maple Gretsch Stop Sign Badge 24, 13, 16 drums. Unwrapped natural maple shells. Floor has three extra holes. Good Remo and Evans heads. These drum look and sound great.
The Gretsch Stop Sign Badge (SSB) is an iconic design used primarily throughout the 1970s, marking a major transition from the vintage "Round Badge" era to the later "Square Badge" designs. It is highly sought after by collectors for its association with the classic "Great Gretsch Sound" produced by Jaspermaple/gumwood shells. History and Timeline Gretsch introduced the octagonal badge to replace the round version as the company moved production and updated its branding.
- SSB #1 (1969–1977): The first version featured the classic octagonal shape.
- Transition (1977–1978): A brief period where the first Square Badge appeared.
- SSB #2 & #3 (1978–1981): Gretsch returned to the Stop Sign shape with slight variations, including the "Drop G" logo (where the tail of the 'G' in Gretsch drops down) introduced around 1979.
