66/67 downbeat with canister
Super 400 small round knob

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 agree Jaghog, double tom mounts were a sign of the times in the early 70's and many collectible 60's kits fell to them. I think many sellers would have sold those near mint toms off separately from the kick, or worse yet, sold off that gorgeous 40+ year old hardware piece by piece to maximize their profit. Since this is a factory matched kit, I think some forgiveness is in order for the extra holes, which would amount to 4 small factory drilled holes provided you turn the kit into a Hollywood configuration. Keeping the kit together, may not be the most lucrative decision I'll admit, but gives drummers who otherwise couldn't afford it, a chance to own a beautiful kit at a fraction of the cost and preserves a bit of drum history.
