OWN A PIECE OF HISTORY.

For sale and in great condition for its age, a 1943 Gretsch ''Defender'' drum set, finished in original two tone blue.

This is an extremely rare drum set and very few have survived over the years.

The kit consists of Bass drum: 25x12; Tom Toms: 14x12 and 12x8.

The tacked on heads are intact and holding tension well. The top batter heads and bass drum heads are all calf skin.

These drums were once owned by jazz legend - Tony Oxley.

£400. Pics on request.
