Yeah, looks good, though price seems a little steep. Hard to tell actual manufacturer, as I, myself have Stewart kits that appear to be made by Star, Pearl, and Hoshino. Wrap appears to be very similar to the Pearl's, Tiger Eye, but can't say for sure. Pics are too small to make a positive ID from hardware etc. Very little detail given on ad, and I can't see any badges either. Wonder what "100% restored" actually implies...

In the 70s, that color wrap was all over the place. We called it "Root Beer Wrap". While many guys really like it, I always thought it looked cheap.

I think that wrap looks really cool. I had a Stewart kit in that wrap a few years back and sold it to make room for some new old Luddies.

Snare lugs seem to indicate Star to me. If you look closely, they are the Slingerland s/k copies, so this is likely a 6/9 ply kit from 70 to 73. The wrap is called Tiger Eye, and that is the facts, Jack!

Attaboy J-stix!

1968 and 1969 Pearl Drums Color pages..... either just plain Tiger's Eye (68) or Tiger's Eye Pearl (69).

This wrap does not appear in the 72 and later cats.

These are NOT Pearl drums from either the 68 or 69 cat. The hardware is wrong for those years. This post is only speaking to the wrap name.

Thanks R/S! Most folks don't realize that both, actually all, of the wrap of the 60s, 70s and even 80s MIJ, MIT and MIC used virtually the same wraps. A few were different in some years as exclusives, like Lava Pearl, Pearl Fantasia, Fibre Gold and Peacock Pearl, in the case of Star and Star made stencils.
