That is a super kit. The gold sparkle that Trixon and Tromsa both used ( Trixon called it yellow/gold sparkle TX 18, Tromsa called it Gold Flitter but it was the same wrap) , is the peak of gold sparkle/glitter wraps. Should be a date stamp inside.

Your knob ----is it the one with the little sparkle insert in the wrap colour , that is threaded for the rod? I might have one of those-- maybe not the coloured insert though. Ingo may have one ,though. I will look tonight.

Looks like , possibly a 1964,65 kit from the lug stagger on the snare drum.

Really cool kit. I've always dug Trixons but have never had the pleasure of playing one. Sound good?
