Just for fun I mixed up some drums from the three Ludwig kits that I am keeping 8x12 club-date in sky blue, 14x14" club-date silver sparkle floor tom, 16x16" black diamond pearl floor tom and a 14x22" oyster blue bass drum. And boy do they sound great!
My jelly bean kit
Thank you!

Very nice Jeff!
Fun to mix it up sometimes.
Yes, I am really digging the 12" tom.
Thank you!

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.
If ever I record with my vintage drums( I've used my 80's YAMAHA's before) I will likely do like Jim keltner and mix the drums according to sound. I've got more than enough 12",13"toms, 14" and 16" floortoms.

Ultimately they are musical instruments and how they sound and integrate with each other is more important than when the drums are from or how they may look.
