throw and bridge system

pictures below
The set sounds fantastic ready to delivery all the Gretsch
goodness you crave!
The finish is in good shape with no major loss there is some typical
checking but no peel or flaking
The rear of the 12" shows only very light tom rub all being very
superficial
The chrome is all in good condition as well the hoops have some wear
but all the chrome is far above average
All mounts and fasteners function well and the Tom arm allows for very
secure mounting while
being flexible for positioning variants
All drums seat Remo heads
