Please, recognize my drumset!

Hi, wlochaty149 !

Looks like 1970s Pearl drums, but I don't recognize the lug casings or the tom arm. They're not original Pearl equipment as far as I know. Snare has normal Pearl lug casings.

Your set might be a very early 1970s model, mayb ebefore they began using their standard lug casings, and if so, the snare drum is not original to the set. Almost looks like and old Yamaha or Tama tom arm, from what I can see in the photo.

Looks like a single pole rising from the bass drum mount, with a Pearl 3-hole adapter added to hold the two tom arms. That's not even the beefy 3-hole adapter - it's the thin one.

Might be your set is a mutt made up of different parts from different manufacturers that someone has put together...

You'd need to take better photos to show us the details before anyone could hazard an accurate guess, though...

Yes, you're absolutely right, thanks! Yesterday I saw the same snare (my is without pearl signature only) and it is Maxwin or copy of Maxwin. So snare is from another set.

I took new photos and I want to clear up - the tom arm on the first photo is an everplay arm, because the old one, which was orginally iserted is broken. But the second arm, I think, is orginal.

Here are new photos, I'm still asking for help guys ;) Bless!

Maybe I don't know my pearl hardware well enough, but the tom mount looks "home made", with some kind of multi-clamp and a piece of pipe, yes?

Snare looks a lot like my no-name, likely made by Pearl snare, except mine is 10 lugs.

Pearl made some "chrome over wood" kits for their "session" series. But the session series had different lugs.

I viewed Pearl catalogs from 70s and there aren't lugs like this from my kit... but I dont know if someone changed them.

I bought this drums with tom arm mounted, so I also dont know if it is a home-made ;)

I think these lugs are Apollo lugs or similar stencil kit.. So it would be some type of cross over kit between changes.

I tested it on the photos and maybe You're right... but what about this "pearl japan" signaure? You suggest that my kit is 70s pearl with different hardware, and changed lugs from apollo or similar to apollo kit?
