Great site!
Can anyone help me id my set.
It is a pearl from the 80's best I can tell. The badge makes me think it is after 84 becuase of the light background and dark letters. But from what I understand they only made them in the usa from 80 to 83. I was told it was a genesis set when I got it. I am guessing that it was mid price range set as the badge is silver instead of gold. The badges do indicate Maple shell made in the usa.

My best guess measurments of the toms are
12 x 10
13 x 11
14 x 12
15 x 14
16 x 16 FT

The bass drums are
22 x 14
22 x 16

The other interesting thing is that it seems that almost all the other kits from that era seem to have tom mounts on the bass drums. Neither of these bass drums have any mounts at all on them.

Anyone got any ideas on my black pearl
Help

Thanks for any help

on second thought it is hard to tell if the badges are silver or gold.
I believe the wrap to be jet black.

Pearl World Series was made for only 2 years. That's the series that comes to mind when I see the made in USA on the tag. I had one years ago and the tags said that. BUT ... they also said World Series on them ...... hmmmmmmm
