Looking forward to sharing the complete kit once I get my 16" floor tom back from being refinished. This kit will probably end of being the 'Pride of the Fleet'. Here is the 8-lug snare. All original except heads and wires.

1959 green sparkle 22/12/16/5.5x14

Hey Steve, can you share some information on that hoop mounted tom mount? Does it have a spade for the tom? Is it a W&A mount or did Geo. Way make their own bass drum hoop mount for tom toms?

My 22" Geo. Way is completely virgin. I have the hoop mount bass drum spurs but don't have one for the 13" tom. Not that I would ever use it, but it would be nice to locate the correct piece.

What is it about the aesthetics of GW drums? They just look so "right."
