Gretsch floor tom

I ordered a Gretsch USA Custom 14" x 14" floor tom in walnut lacquer for my 81 "Stop-sign badge" kit. I'm shipping them my 12" tom so that they can get the color exact. It will have top and bottom pratt mufflers like the rest of the kit.

The coolest part is that they are going to put a "Drop-G badge" on it so it will REALLY match.

Coleman, who manages the drumshp at Washinton Music Center in Wheaton Maryland called the manager of the Gretsch custom shop directly. It seems that they are friends, pretty cool.

It won't be in until after the first of the year.
