Not sure if you have seen this or not.
Gretsch drums have published a photo of the drum kit Nic will use during the upcoming Genesis tour (whenever this will take place)

Thanks for sharing, I hadn't seen that. Looks like he's going with the concert toms and maybe triggers on them. Hard to see everything in this picture but interesting!
I wonder if this is the same kit Phil used from 1983 - 1987 or so, or a replica? I think Nic was using this same kit a couple of years back and always wondered that.
It's brand new, the kit which Phil owned (3) from 1983 through to 1987 have the older Gretsch badge on them.

Thanks vl1 and TGA. Wonder how this kit will sound in comparison to the original. The original had such a nice punch to the toms, guess we'll hear eventually.
I'll have to check that out. I haven't paid too much attention to the NDY tour so I'm not up on the kit other than it looked like a right handed set up of Phil's old 80s kit with different cymbals.
Its the Gretsch badges that give it away. Phil's has the Gretsch square badges and Nic's has round Gretsch badges. Plus Nic's is a different shade of white.

It's not a surprise that Gretsch have built a new drumkit for the tour. It's also a good way to promote the company. Plus Nic can of course adjust what he needs.
