Tama..chevron finish?

Posts: 2433 Threads: 483

I thought Gretsch did it first but I found an old set of blk n white Swingstars, MIT. Old badge, lugs, etc. Can you tell me how rare they could be, and if they are a decent kit...not a spray interior

Can you provide pictures?

Sorry no, but im going back tomorrow to look closer at them. Do you know when Tama started making drums in Taiwan, that could give me a time frame? MIJ would come before MIT I assume?

Hi wayne,

I'm not quite sure what you mean about the "chevron" finish. In reference to the Gretsch Renown 57, yes, those have a stick-on chevron. Here's a picture of my Renown 57 snare drum. Is this what you're referring to?
