[COLOR="DarkRed"]Impossible to tell from this pic...looks like it may be a mixed set, though...as the FT has different lugs from the rack. the bass seems to have Slingerland claws & spurs...but...again, hard to tell.....[/COLOR]

That is a Premier floor tom. An older style tenor/snare drum being used as a tom.. and one bushy beard!

I can try for 20 years and only get a little stubble!

A little more showing of the bass drum would answer that question.

Thanks for the replies. Like you guys, I think it's a mutt set, but it's kinda funky cool. Until you mentioned it, I didn't even notice that the tom was on an old snare stand. That tom reminds me of an old Kent snare I had when I was 7, only a little deeper. I knew the bass drum was old due to the spurs and no rack mounting brackets.

Hopefully I'll get some closeups in the next day or two.

If anything, I can probably get it for next to nothing for the grandkids to play with.

Oh, that is one heckuva beard. Mine could grow that long, but wouldn't ever be that thick. These guys were in town from Finland and used these for a gig at Fat Matt's Rib Shack (Atlanta, Ga.).

[COLOR="DarkRed"]sounds like the beginning of a joke:

"So, a Finnish blues band walks into a rib shack in Atlanta....and...."Eye Ball

Premier FT, Slingy bass drum...already there it's probably worth a couple hundred plus if you chose to resell....

Now that's funny!!!!

Cool looking kit, mutt or not. At some point, I hope to piece together a kit like this from old marching drums and such.
