...this is the only piece of Ludwiggery that I have.
and it is for sale with my black oyster dubs. I bought a Pacific snare used, and swapped the tube lugs onto this snare, and the wood hoops are on my DW 14x6 maple. Buying the snare was cheaper than it would have been to buy the parts. Barry

I use that same Pearl stand for my tom too. 6.5 BB's as well, but not hammered (that's the chrome one). SoCalMike, Love the maple with the 28! Kinda makes me want to put my 28 up again.......almost. Don't want to haul it anymore haha!

Wow your setup is so cool! especially that rack of gongs/effect cymbals.

Wow ellenvannin105, your drums and collection of Paiste's absolutely stun me! Do you actually use those gongs in some settings, or are they pretty much just for show? If you wouldn't mind, although this is a Ludwig thread, would you mind giving us specs on ALL (or some, Im just curious :) ) of your cymbals?

I play Progressive Rock; my kit is modeled on the old kits used by Carl Palmer,Ian Paice,Bill Bruford,etc....My wife bought me the majority of it as Christmas and Birthday presents. I wouldn't know what to do without my gongs; I had to move the gong racks for acouple of days to make room for my father-in-law to build some new DVD/CD shelves. I was totally gongless during this period. Imagine trying to practice along to ELP records and you have no gong...disgraceful! But I digress.... |

Hey, I'm real new here. Wanted to hop on board with the Ludwig thread. I never used Evans heads on any drums until I started playing these Vistalites. I always thought they were inferior to Remo. But ultimately Evans heads just sound amazing on this compared to any Pinstripe, Black Dot, Ambassador or Powerstroke 3.
The Supraphonic snare usually has an Ambassador on it but I'm getting a new one this weekend so I'm using this Evans snare temporarily. Been playing this kit for over a year and it just feels like your favorite pair of shoes. I feel weird that my favorite kit is an acylic kit but I just enjoy playing this kit so much, I play longer because I like the sound I get. Anyway, blah blah. Thanks for lookin. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]()

Third time that I'm going to post my kit. But anyway, glad to be a part of the Ludwig family:
![]() It is kinda embarassing though 'cause from all the other kits in this thread mine is the cheapest :S But I've come to appreciate it 'cause with good drumheads (Aquarian Response 2, Aquarian Classic Clear) and tuned correctly it sounds awesome! I'm happy with my drums, though I could fall in Love with a lot the kits in this entire thread/forum. |

The drums are 16" x 20", 8" x 12", and 14" x 14". I also have a 8" x 10" that goes largely unused. Oh, and the acrolite snare. Thanks! I've never been happier with a kit. Ben |

Hi Ludwig Fans, Just introducing myself and sharing one of my Ludwig sets that I have played for the last 40 yrs. This is a '69 champange clear 3ply, 5pc Buddy Rich sizes 22. 13. 16. 16. 14x5 snare, original Hwd, stands + speedking pedal . I also have a 14x14 floor and a 12x8 tom. I haven't played a better sounding set and I've played a lot over the years. Infact they are sounding better with age! Hope you dig em.

Beautiful color! I'm considering the Mahogany stain if I don't go with a sparkle. Do you have any shots of it indoors? I'm wondering if it's really dark, almost black unless there's light on it.
Also, what sizes on this kit? |
|
#155

I just sold that kit, and no indoor shots. But yes, it's very dark unless under lights.
14x26, 11x13, 16x16 & 16x18"... almost a Bonham kit. Bermuda |
