Early 70's Ludwig B/O Rock Kit -Must See! Last viewed: 1 hour ago

Loading...

[COLOR="Red"]SOLD![/COLOR] DONE DEAL!.... (to a really nice guy/forum member, by the way!)

Hi Guys,

Got a little gem for you, this kit is in Blue Sparkle and the sizes are GREAT for Rock & Roll.

8"x12"

10"x14"

16"x16"

14"x24"

(see photos) Granitone interiors! Here's the real kicker, the shells on these drums are 3-ply Mahogany! Only the best sounding shells that the Ludwig company ever produced. Vintage Mahogany/Poplar/Mahogany, it just doesn't get much better than that.

Wrap and hardware are all in A-1 condition. There is the start of some seam lift on the bass drum, but it's so minimal it is not up to the 'needs repair' stage yet. The bass drum took a small 1" bump in the wrap, but it's -under the drum-, in the back near the hoop, does not go through and does not affect the drum at all. This set is overall in excellent condition and was well taken care of over the years. Includes dual tom post and floor tom legs.

The drums sound absolutely awesome, very FAT, warm and punchy - 'Classic.' Anybody who has played a 3-ply Mahogany kit knows what I'm talking about. The sound of these drums is why people buy Vintage drums!

$1100.00 - You pay shipping.

These are not going to last long. If I can't find them a new home here, they will go the Bay where I will get them sold and hopefully for a higher price. VDF members have first crack at them. This is definitely a 'pull the trigger' kit.

PM me.

John

Some photos of the interiors, close-ups of the badges on the toms, and photos of the bass seam and the dinger in the wrap.

Hey Gregg,

It was great to meet both of you today, but I don't think we could have chosen a worse weather day to do it on! Glad to hear you guys got home ok.

Thanks to you both from me and Bev and we couldn't be happier that the drums went to such nice people and to a good home. I love doing business that makes me smile... this transaction with you put that happy smile on my face.

Pudding face! lol

Enjoy the kit for many years to come amigo... Keep on Pl
