worth looking at if you are looking for one.

I think the only thing Gon Bops on this drum is the tag. The body has a different profile to the real Gon Bops...but again I may be wrong.

It is an early GB - from the 60s - before the 3000 series.

Nice drum, I have 2. One 11" and one 12 1/2

Psych is right, it's an early Gon Bops. You can tell because the early Gon Bops had clipped corners at the lug plates, versus the rounded corner and square corners of later models.

I think the sellers camera has distorted the shape of the drum in the image though.

Nice little project.

I think the early shapes were much more cuban than the later ones with the wide bottoms.
