This is my drag around kit.

Nothing special just fun to play.and i dont freak out when people play on them. this kit was in bad cond.i had to put new bass spurs cuz they had none. the inner shell's were painted rainbow bright color's. so i painted them roger's flat grey so they would match, and cleaned and polished them up, much to my suprise the drum's sound realy decent. the real beauty when i bought the drums it came with a 1970 gretsch 14x5 cow snare.

very bright color! Is it a re-wrap? Many of the Japanese kits look more orange.

Great job cleaning them up! Judging by the lugs, this might be a Hoshino set. Do the t-rods go into actual swivel nuts or into little insert pieces?

Either way, very cool looking drums.

Closer pics of some of the features on the drums might help us give you some more info. Close ups of the bass drum t-rods, lugs, floor tom leg mounts, rack tom mounts, interiors, and bearing edges would give us more info to go on.

My first impression is that it's a Hoshino set (Hoshino made, could have been branded any number of names,) likely made around the early-mid 70s, maybe '72-75. But, again, more detailed pics would tell us more.
