GMS Green Glass Glitter Drums

Loading...

This is a new GMS SE series green glass glitter laquer finish kit. This kit sold originally for $4,000, I'm looking to trade for a white marine pearl vintage kit.

The GMS kit is a 10x13, 16x16, 16x22, thanks.

Did you pay $4,000 dollars for those 3 drums?That price,not to be insulting or anything,sounds ridiculous.Sorry.....

The original owner did in 2007, GMS is pretty much a custom drum company, they are very pricy.

I went to their website

Some awesome looking drums, not Vintage, mind you, but very, very beautiful.

That picture doesn't do them justice at all..........

Keller and some good edges, hardware, and wraps. Nice drums. I've played a few of them and liked the rock sound. Not great at jazz but nice boomers. They have the ubiquitous modern studio sound of the 90s and beyond. Was

it Gwar's drummer that endorsed these back in the day? That used to crack me up. What bafoonery.

These drums were special ordered for someone who was endorsed by GMS, I'm not sure who. The kit is a green glass glitter laquer finish with brass lugs and gold plated hardware. Green and gold, very flashy. Here's another photo.

Not sure about GWAR's drummer, but Eric Kretz from Stone Temple Pilots has endorsed them for quite a while now!

I've always thought they were a bit overpriced too.

1964 Slingerland Sound King 13/15/22 Ebony Satin Stain (refin.)
1965 Ludwig Downbeat 13/16/20 Turquoise Sparkle (rewrap)
1967 Ludwig Club Date 13/20 w/16" downbeat FT in Blue Oyster Pearl
1979/80 Ludwig Classic 13/14/24 Wine Red
1980 Yamaha Rec. Cust. 12/13/16/22 Cherry Red

...plus an ever-growing snare farm... Luddy/Ayotte/Slinger/Pearl/etc.
