If it had lugs on the bottom, I'd say somebody added a cocktail drum to the kit. It's a -deep- concert tom, probably 18" or 20" x 16". Doesn't look like any Slingy floor tom I've ever seen.

Too many great drums to list here!

Looks like a cocktail type drum added as a FT.. I wonder why they did not make more Ft's in a 14x16 size? well this guy likes deep drums

The 16" deep by 14" diameter Walberg & Auge with my 1963 set is currently my favorite floor tom from all of my vintage sets. It has the balls of a 16x16 with more focused attack/sustain/decay than a 14x14 or 12x15. I have since changed the hazy head to an Aristocrat.

No matter how far you push the envelope, it is still stationery.

That photo makes it look like the opposite: 16 deep by 14 diameter!

Way cool drums regardless!

OOOOOOOPS! You are correct. I typed the dimensions in the wrong order. I have since edited my post thanks to you calling it to my attention.

Mike,, The smae thing i was thinking but if you look you will see that the tube lugs stop or should i say look to stop about 6 or 8" from the bottom of the drum.Even with the cocktail drums i have seen even with wood hoops at the bottom of the drum useing T-rods and claws used on bass drums i have never seen a drum with lugs like that..Maybe someone added a piece to the shell to make it longer? Still iam not going to go look at them to far away for me and the asking price is 1,000.00 for what you see in the photo..Mikey
