1965 Gracy's

Loading...

Here is a pic of my '65 Gracy drums purchased new by me in November, 1965. The set is a BeBop kit with 20x18 bass, 13x9 rack tom, 14x14 floor tom and a 5 1/2x14 snare. The wrap finish is Grey Marine Pearl and is in excellent condition on all drums. The batter heads have been replaced with Remo pinstripes but the resonant heads are the original '65 Remos. The bass resonant head has been replaced with an Aquarian regulator. The drums have been played extensively throughout the 60's, 70's, 80's and into the 90's. The cymbals pictured are Sabians and Zildjians. The snare in the pic is my Pearl piccolo but the snare to the set is in excellent conditon.

[COLOR="DarkRed"]I really love those old Japanese kits. The finish patterns were quite eye-catching. Can you provide a closeup of the badge ? The only Gracys I have ever seen had rectangular badges.
