That is one of, if not THE most beautiful teardrop sets I have seen. Give us a bit of history on that gem. Almost looks as if it has never been played.

Thanks for your appreciation of and interest in the kit .

I got the set from a drum friend in Germany who was not the original owner . While not mint , it is as close to mint as you'd be likely to find . The 18/14/12 Teardrop lug kits are very rare - even rarer than the round badge Gretsch in the same sizes . And it sounds every bit as good as it looks . Wish I had more info .
