It was likely a 13/16/22 configuration (caled a Super Classic) with the 12 tom and second rail mount added later. Ludwig had a 12/13/16/22 configuration that was called the Hollywood. The mounting system would likely not have been two rails but instead a center post holding both toms. Your 13 tom is mounted backwards, as it probbaly started out on the left side with the badge toward the audience. When the 12 tom was added, the 13 was moved to the right and now its badge addresses the player and tone control lever faces the audience.

Thank you for this info. I didn't realize the differences between the 6 and 10 lugs. It certainly is helpful in making the right decisions.

It doesn't really line up with any particular catalog kit due to the dual rail mounts. The original five piece set was called the "Hollywood" but had a different center post tom mount and also came with two 8x12 toms over the bass drum rather than a 12 & a 13 Like you have there.

The catalog names really didn't matter as all the drums were made exactly the same and the catalog names merely referred to various suggested configurations of those drums. In other words an 8x12 tom tom from a Downbeat set was exactly the same as an 8x12 from a Hollywood set...there weren't "downbeat" or "Hollywood" drum lines.

I think Rick is probably right as far as how this set came to its current configuration. The 12 was an add on to the factory set.

With the BD, FT, and 13" tom tom, and the mount with the telephone dial holder, you have a mid sixties Super Classic. It`s been drilled for a different rail mount and smaller tom tom.

It`s no longer collectors grade but all the hardware is correct and collectors grade. The tilter arm for the cymbal is prolly the most sought after part of the Super classic nowadays. Yours is there.

That white Pioneer is awesome as, shine that thing up. It`s wrap is also sixties.

What are the cymbals ?

The cymbals are Apollo cymbals. Except the high hats, they are Zildjian New Beat hi-hats. Well, I am grateful to learn that it's a good set. It didn't cost us much, so I figured it probably was just an basic intro kit. But just from what I have learned even since posting this thread this afternoon, it appears to be a much better "find" than I was aware of. Personally, I play a some guitar and piano, but I have found myself drawn to these drums lately when no one is around, so who knows...
