With all this talk recently of custom kits versus all the Ludwig threads, I am wondering which is the better option:
a) have Precision Drum make me a jazz kit?
or
b) go with someone like Ludwig and get a Classic Maple bebop?
Has anyone had Precision Drum build them a kit or send them shells and lugs to build their own drum(s)? Quality good?
It seems like Precision Drum might be slightly more affordable, though the Classic Maples are nicely priced. Plus, Precision Drum would give you the option to use solid brass lugs, which might be an improvement on Ludwig's metal lugs.
Thoughts? Does Precision Drum do good work on bearing edges? Are the Ludwigs are comparatively better option?
Thanks!
