If anyone here has a late 60's Gretsch round badges snare drum with Lightening Throw-off that they'd be willing to trade for other Gretsch drums and gear lets talk. late 69 is when Gretsch was switching from the Micro Sensitive strainer to the Lightening......and then they went to the Stop Sign Badges.
I'm looking for the Chrome snare drum Gretsch offered with they're Rock and Roll kit in the late 60's - preferably 68-69.
Round badged
with lightening throw off.
Thanks,
Gary
Tat 10 lug cob snare round badge was my go to in the old days one of the best good luck
I'm not sure mine was a 10 lug - it could have been but I don't recall for sure. I do remember seeing a Premier 2000 Chrome - the ones with snares on the underside of the batter as well as on the resonate head - and trading my Gretsch snare and some money for it. That was at Ray Ayotte's Drums Only! store in Vancouver around 1971-72. Fun thing - now I'd rather have my Gretsch snare than that Premier. Nostalgia and sentiment will kill ya huh .
It will but I finnaly got my pink chapnge kit and it stays in cases as I'm now partial to my 64 wmp kit and 61 cob 400
