What brand/era floor tom legs are these?

Loading...

I purchased a vintage Ludwig kit that came with these floor tom legs on unknown brand of floor tom with 1960's Yamaha parts. The floor tom legs don't resemble anything I recognize? They are not vintage Yamaha which had double bend legs. They are solid not hollow if that helps? Any help would be appreciated from the knowledgeable group. Not sure why the pictures got turned upside down when I uploaded them? Sorry....

I think they may be Gretsch.

I think you're right. The shape is right for Gretsch. Orangemi would know, he knows Gretsch.

Too many great drums to list here!

Gretsch 99% but the rubber tips look newer.

Keep fixing them up...

How long? What diameter? I ask because there have been non-American maker's legs like that. Could also be the newer Gretsch G9021 leg @12.7mm

Never play it the same way once.

Looks like 1 cm wide. These are solid. They are 18 1/8 inches long and have a factory drilled hole on the end under the rubber foot. I guess they could be modern?
