[COLOR="Red"]SOLD! [/COLOR] see note below.
Up for sale is a 1959 Ludwig 'Transition Badge' Club Date kit in very rare sizes. The last one of these I saw, (identical kit/color to the one I'm offering,) sold on ebay for $1300. plus additional shipping.
I lovingly restored this kit back to it's original condition. The drums are sound, no extra holes, problems or alterations anywhere. NOB lugs, hoops and hardware all in great, clean condition. The bass drum is especially hard to find. 12"x20"! The rack tom is a 9"x13" with a killer (original) 12"x15" floor tom. Not a converted marcher. The kit was purchased on ebay from the original owner complete. It is not a 'pieced together orphan kit.' It has always been a 'set.'
Three-ply mahogany shells; Maple inner, Poplar center, Mahogany outer. Awesome tone. In order to find a good home for these quickly I have set the price at:
$950.00 for the kit + you pay shipping. (Price FIRM)
I have locked this thread in order to avoid further contact with some 'problematic' individuals who ruined the first attempt to sell the kit. If you're interested, please pm me. Don't attempt to contact me by posting here, as I said, the thread is locked.
Somebody is going to be very happy with these. They need a good, loving home so they'll still be around 50 years from now. The guys who know me, know that I never buy or sell 'junk' anything. This is a quality little kit in rare sizes and in excellent condition. Priced well under market value. Nuff said.
Regards to All, as always, first come, first served...
