So I had these two orphan Yamaha Recording Custom toms ...and I had a 22x18 Gretsch Renown '57 shell that had a crack in it. All black.
Brought to my drum guy, he put lugs on it (retro Pearl lugs from the 70s) and I found some Ludwig black oyster Inlaid hoops...then cut 5" off the depth to get rid of the crack. Ripped off the white chevron , plugged the mount holes, put those at bottom, new simple spurs ...voila!
It rocks !!
Not sure I like the white reso though...maybe black.
Evans blue hydraulic would look cool and sound like crap. I only like Fiberskins on sparkle kits...hmmm what else.
Black dot? Yeah. Black dot reso. Maybe.
