Hey Squid ,

A Legend kit ? First one I've even seen . I had a couple of Legend snare drums but sold them . Not that they were bad sounding or anything , just wanted something else .

The badges on that Legend kit resemble Yamaha's , so I assumed ...Now , upon closer inspection , I see that the lugs are not Yammy's .

Actually , I have two Gretsch Broadkaster ( with Jasper shells ) bop kits , both in the burnt orange satin finish . The other one has a factory tom mount/holder on the bass drum . I bought it to get the matching snare drum for the kit pictured . Thought I could quickly move it over here in Japan as Gretsch jazz kits are much sought after , but I've had it on action for months at a nice price and no bueno . Guess they don't dig the gunmetal finish on the hardware - got to be chrome . Personally speaking , I deeply dig the burnt orange / gunmetal combo .

What are you using for a snare drum in the pics ? Can't quite make out the lugs .
