You are going to pay top dollar for that floor tom. Even if that is an extra set of holes. They actually look like the spacing for a muffler.

Gretsch didn't make a 14" FT then, so the 14 is most likely a 10x14 (or 12x14) rack tom that has had FT leg mounts added, thus the extra holes. I would say in the ballpark of $300 would be fair for the two drums.

Thanks,

Bill
