The spurs are from a local music shop.. stagg i think. I have got the originals but i want to gig this kit and didnt think they would be man enough.

The wrap isnt as dark as i thought it would be but i like it anyway.

Ive got another Beverley kit to do now that has the premier fittings and spurs. Then im gonna look out for a gretsch to restore.

Hi Ian,
I dont have any badges im afraid. I have 3 badges for the other kit i have and one badge for the finished kit. The badges shown in the pics were made by myself until i can find some originals. Im quite happy to email you the file of the badges i made.
