I didn't realize he played a 12 x 22 bass drum until I saw this 1969 Jimi Hendrix Concert. You can clearly see the drum set up.
Apparently, this Ludwig drum set is also up for sale, it has the specs stated as well:

Was this size BD the exception to the norm in the late 60's-70's rock era?
Or were there other prominent rock group drummers also using this size, perhaps even a 12 x 20 (like my Sonor Player kit bass drum)?
