8×12= 3-ply shell, bottom hoop replaced, mixed tension rods(original and new). Ludwig P-1216-D tom bracket. Extra holes filled at tom bracket. 14×14= 6-ply shell, bottom hoop 50’s and top hoop 60’s-70’s. Looks like they flipped the drum upside down and re-drilled for legs. 14×20= 3-ply shell, Ludwig bass drum bracket. Holes filled in for the rail and spurs. Has Slingerland spurs with a hole under each that has been filled and wmp applied to cover(pic12). 8 generic claws and tension rods (4 on each side towards the bottom). Kick side hoop is steel. The current owner bought these at the Drum Center of Indianapolis in the early 90’s and played them for a couple of years and then put them in the closet for the last 20 years. All 3 have been recovered and who ever did it did one of the best jobs I’ve ever seen in my 30 years of dealing with drums. I think they were re-done in the late 60’s or early 70’s as they have some fade to them (pic7). They look like they might of been recovered by the factory but who knows. Just a great players kit!
