Please help me to ID this Kit (Gretsch?)

Hi,

this picture is from a video from 1985 and the owner thinks it was a Gretsch Kit.

Would you guys agree?

The tension rod I see and the claw do look it. The one lug facing me looks it too.

Possible.

They're square toms from the 70's. All the drum co.'s had that fab. Mine are German.

Rock used to be loud and live and outside. You can't beat un-mic'd C-toms outside.

They look like Gretsch. At that time Gretsch only made one line of drums, which were the equivalent of what they today call the USA Custom series.

I'd guess Gretsch, also.....Basically, we know they aren't Ludwig, Rogers, Slingerland or Camco....the die cast rims are the biggest clue.
