Not mine, but being sold in my town. And, I am not slamming the seller, but the floor tom doesn't look right.

Thoughts???

Umm... That is a weird size. Club Date 13"-22" kits had a 15" floor available, but I've never seen a double-lug floor in that size. Doesn't mean it's not a factory set, but you're not wrong for thinking it looks odd. It is odd.

i see ads like that all the time were someone will take a marching tom/snare or just a regular tom (or damaged floor tom cut down) and convert it into a floor tom just to make a "kit" out of it.

I like it. Very odd size, but cool kit.

its probably a 12x15, which is more common. with the muffler right above the badge, that's "usually" a marching drum. could have been a marching tenor with floor tom legs added to it. also could have been a marching snare, but there would be holes for snare hardware and such.

Looks factory to me but I don`t remember a knob ever being over a badge. (add-on)

IMO, coolest part of that set would be that 18x14 kick, floor tom looks weird to me. Looks like a Pioneer snare too?

The coolest part for a drummer could be what he`s got growing in that corner.
