It could...or it could be 5 ply...or something else. We would need pics, serial numbers, badges, ... something to help narrow this down. Is it possible to get some shots?

[COLOR="DarkRed"]Pics would help....obvious difference, chr_dot, would be if you see reinforcing rigns in the shell. if so, it's either mahog/poplar/maple...or, in the '70's, I think they were also doing maple/poplar/maple.
If there are no rings and the shells are thicker, then it's the more rockin' 5-ply variety.[/COLOR]

[COLOR=Green]The bass drum shows re-rings...so it's a 3-ply. The exterior ply is either mahogany or maple....
badges are black/silver so it's a 70's...I would think it to be maple/pop/maple....
NIIIICE kit...WOW ![/COLOR]

Its better to have people think you're an idiot, than to open your mouth and prove them wrong, unless you doubt yourself then speak away....
