Thank you everybody!I passed on the Ludwig set last night, and two hours later I found a near mint 1960s Gretsch set! Burgundy sparkle, Jasper shells. Guess where the money went? ;)

Good for you, Mark. Are you going to use a wrap that was available in 1965 or have some fun with a new wrap that appeals to you?

It will be re-wrapped in the same color...Sparkling Red Pearl, AKA Red Glass Glitter.-Mark

We need pictures of the Gretsch kit. Did you get the one being sold at Badges Drum Shop?
