Description:

Up for sale is one vintage 1960's Gretsch Cocktail Drum. 20" x 14" size. Round badge era drum with unique two-tone multi band finish. Silver paint insides. It has the snare strainer/mechanism on the inside top with the adjustable knob. It also has two Gretsch diamond shaped mounts on the top side for cymbal arms or percussion instruments (woodblock, cowbell, etc). Same style mounts on the 3 legs. Condition notes: 1) The 6 lugs are missing on the bottom side, as well as the bottom rim, head and tension rods. 2) Both upper diamond mounts are missing their wing screws, but I tested with the original wing screw below and they are not stripped. 3) The last picture shows some inner ply loss at one set of lug holes. 4) The bracket that holds the bass drum pedal only fits as pictured (see pic #14). At least 1 of the 3 legs is not original based on this comment. I do not know the back history on this so this is the best description I can give. $400.00 cash. I will consider a cash offer on this item. Throw me a number that works for both of us. Pick up in west hill Kent. Send telephone number in email if you want to meet up.
