Check these lines out on the top and bottom the floor tom. Totally mystery.
Don’t tell Watson!I like mutts better than purebreds I guess
My bet is someone cut back an existing wrap sometime before they were refinished as natural finish.And to make things even more interesting.

Modern Gretsch drums of the early 2000s to recently that were wrapped had the wrap cut back from the edge about that same amount. I don't know if they cover the whole drum with wrap and then cut off the part at the edge or only wrap the center of the drum to start with. If they do the former those lines might be the result.View attachment 477773 View attachment 477774 View attachment 477775 View attachment 477776 And to make things even more interesting.

Yes. The previous owner removed what he said was a really faded champagne sparkle wrap. He sent the ft and bd to a furniture company who refinished the drums in this beautiful natural finishMy bet is someone cut back an existing wrap sometime before they were refinished as natural finish.
