Hey guys, just wanted to let you know I have a nice assortment of vintage 60's round badge Gretsch hardware and some Slingerland lugs also.

Here is what I have:

So....I'll be the one to ask...what happened to the shells? Why strip good gear?

When I was a young and stupid teenager I stripped all the shells down because I was going to refinish them.......that never got done and believe it or not....get ready for this....my dad threw the shells out when I wasn't living there anymore....I know, I want to puke too. When I was helping him clear the basement out years later, I found the box with some of the hardware in it. So the answer is....they got run over by a bulldozer at the dump about 20 years ago. His response was that they were in his way.....(sigh)......nothing else to say.........

Hopefully none of you had just eaten before you read this.....I am sorry if I made you feel sick.

On top of that....I have no idea where the rest of the hardware or the hoops went...if I know my dad, he took them to the dumpster at work. I hang my head in shame.....should have never let those drums out of my sight. For years, I thought they were still stacked in the basement out of the way. I didn't learn of their demise until I went to go get them one day and they were gone and he had told me that they got thrown out years ago. I had been gone out of the house for years at that point. But based on the amount of crap in their basement I would have never thought they would have been in the way. I am still kind of ****ed that he never called me to ask what I wanted to do with them but that is my dad for ya and that is a long story I don't want to get into. Don't get me wrong, love my dad but he did some things that just defied common sense.
