These are sized 14x20”, 8x12”, and 14x14 with a match 5x14” snare drum - Progressive Jazz, finished in its original walnut lacquer! These drums are in excellent condition inside and out. great interiors and bearing edges, super clean chrome, smoothly functional techware, and no tone controls - perfect for players that would rather avoid them altogether. These Jasper shells sing and encapsulate the ”Great Gretsch Sound”! More details below:

14x20” - Model 4249, Serial #38512 - this drum is fitted with a clear Pinstripe and a modern Gretsch logo coated resonant head. There are a couple minor cosmetic blemishes in the surface of the top of the bass drum.

8x12” - Model 4415, Serial #38536 - fitted with a modern coated ambassador over a clear ambassador, this drum has a couple minor cosmetic marks near its interior badge; a tiny bit of snare rub. The outward facing badge panel is very clean.

14x14” - Model 4417, Serial #38590 - This drum is in nice shape with no notable cosmetic wear. Same heads as the 12”. It has some unique variations to its wood grain that are not as prevalent throughout the rest of the set. Ridiculously cool natural aging that gives this set subtly vintage visual character.

5x14” - Model 4157, Serial #38520 - Two badges on this snare drum, and the lightning butt plate (tensioning side; not the release) is a little off kilter, but still perfectly functional. Outfitted with an Aquarian Texture Coated over a Gretsch Permatone resonant side with the original 40 strand wires. More pics here: https://reverb.com/my/selling/listings?state=live&query=Gretsch
