NOT Standards! Look again. Those shells are not 3-ply shells. The tom tom bracket is in the wrong position. And the spurs aren't Standard spurs, either. That, my friend, is a FRANKENKIT!!!

It is a rewrap obviously.
I would say it is a Ludwig Rocker -- telescoping spurs, same lugs as the Standard, etc.
The maple/poplar shells can sound nice. Not sure what these have though.
The metal bass hoops may/not be original. I can't remember if any of the Rockers carried those.
igor where is my brain ah there it is abby normal
66/67 downbeat with canister
Super 400 small round knob
1967 super classic obp
once the brass ceases to glitter, and the drum looses its luster, and the stage remains dark, all you have left is the timbre of family.
I did this to an MIJ (Riviera) kit in about 1974 - and a stray Star bass drum into the bargain. In today's purist climate it would be frowned upon but in the heyday of glam rock, damn it looked fine. I think I'd stand by it even today.
