Condition Description: VG - very good condition with all original hardware and no modifications or extra holes. White marine pearl wrap is original with no cracks or splits. Has one cigarette-burn next to a lug as pictured. Shell is excellent, in round, tight re-rings, clean bearing edges, no cracks or damages. Hoops have complete original WMP inlay, one hoop has a couple cracks but still works fine, just could benefit from glue/clamp fix. All hardware is original chrome plating, lugs are mostly clean and shiny with light pitting, chrome on rods and claws mostly still intact but shows more wear as these were not as heavily plated as the lugs. Badge is original, and tight, never been removed. All interior slingerland-stamped lug screw-washers are shiny nickel. Heads are pro quality with lots of life left in them. Sounds incredible, ready to play out of the box
