What’s the story as to how you came upon owning these and its authenticity? How about some pictures and details about what all is included? Thanks
Hi Charles, thanks for the reply.
Pete used to live next door to my mother’s best friend, so when I was growing up, we’d often spend time together- the three families. (About 20 years ago I think)
Several years after he moved to USA, my mum was helping him clear out his london house for sale. The cymbals and drum kit were there, he knew I was learning to play the drums so he gifted them to me. I’m assuming he had an abundance of cymbals and kits.
There’s no signatures or authenticity that I know of. Just a genuine story.
I don’t have pictures of the Granstar kit, but I will get some and post them up. It’s a gun metal grey, 5 piece kit, with a (maybe 50’s) Gretsh snare.
Ive had them cymbals identified and valued.
I would post pictures of the cymbals but I’m not entirely sure how

.
Cymbals are as follows:
22” Zildjian Avedis hollow logo ride
Vintage
22” Zildjian K ride
20” Zildjian Amir ride
Paiste 20” Formula 602 Ride
20” Zildjian K heavy Ride not vintage
20” Zildjian scimitar bronze
16” Zildjian Avedis thin crash
14” Zildjian Avedis 70s hollow logo, new beat hi-hats
10” Roscoe splash
10” Zildjian Avedis Special Recording hi-hat (bottom only)
I’ll get some pictures of the Kit, and figure out how to post photos - I’ve got a lot of the cymbals.
Please let me know if you’ve got any ideas.
Thanks
James
