Vintage 1952 Gretsch Drums and 20" K Zildjian ride for sale

Loading...

I just put my '52 Gretsch Broadkaster (round badge) and '52 K ride for sale today. Set is located in Tennessee. I'm selling the ride and the drumset separately.

Set includes:

22X14 Bass

13X9 Tom Tom

14X5.5 Snare

All drums are tunable and are three-ply wood. The bass drum is stamped inside with "Torgman". Set is in excellent condition with only the bottom Tom Tom skin torn. The original skins are on the bass, tom tom and the bottom of the snare. The outer shells are perfect.

Cymbals:

10" Zilco crash

13" A. Zildjian top and 11" Zilco bottom high hat

Snare stand is by Premier and the bass pedal is a twin spring Speed Master by WFL Drum Co.

Ride:

'52 K. Zildjian ride, 20", 1820 grams

I am the original owner and bought the set from the Original Sam Ash Music Store in Brooklyn, NY where I was living at the time. My music teacher was the great Irving Torgman who went with me when I purchased the drums and personally picked out everything including listening to many K ride cymbals before he finally chose the one I have.

I welcome any questions you may have. Send me your email address and I can send pictures of everything.
