Hi everyone, I will be looking at a set this weekend but I'm skeptical about whether it's actually a Gretsch drumkit. The owner said it has a snare from the 60's but I'm skeptical. Either way, What are your thoughts on the bass drum tom mount? I haven't found a gretsch drumkit that has two tom mount arms coming from the bass drum quite like this one. The ones I've seen the metal bars are super close together?
I'll be looking at the the Gretsch badges if they have some. I also plan to open the drums and inspect the insides for plys and sealant/glue.
Any experts out there that can spot a fake easily?
