Posts: 6170 Threads: 255

First up is a beautiful Ludwig 60's keystone badge 5x14 10 lug Supraphonic. This one had been tucked away for quite some time and is one of the nicest that I've run across. Serial number is 598640. Most likely a '68 issue. The finish on the shell and also the hardware is amazing. There is one small light scratch on one panel. No dents or dings. Has the small round knob muffler that works great. P83 strainer is super smooth. Has proper script logo snare butt. I noticed when I was detailing it that the hoops were lighter in weight. The bottom hoop even has rounded edges at the tension rods. Only theory I have is that someone did this for sound. Lighter hoops usually open drums up more. They are in very nice shape as well. There are four little indentions on the bottom edge of the drum. Just wanted to mention them and will include a pic. They are the same size and spaced equally apart. Never seen these before. No effect on sound. 20 strand wires. Heads are fresh. Remo smooth Ambassador up top and Remo hazy diplomat on the snare side. Please pm me here or email to [email][email protected][/email] if you have any questions. Thanks for checking it out.

SOLD $390 Shipped and Insured US48. Actual shipping costs anywhere else.

Next up is a stunning Ludwig Monroe Large keystone badge 5x14 10 lug Supraphonic. This drum appears to be completely original including heads,wires and snare straps. I don't think this one saw much play time considering it's nice condition. This is a late 90's issue. There is a hint of a date stamp inside that looks like Feb 1998. This is a post internal control/pre lug gasket era drum. Serial number is 3365731. There is some minimal light pitting on the shell, but no dings or scratches. All of the hardware looks like new. Has a P85 strainer, P33 snare butt and Ludwig 20 strand wires with what appears to be the original straps. Ludwig medium batter head and Ludwig snare side head. The overall chrome finish is superb. Please pm me here or email to [email][email protected][/email] if you have any questions. Thanks for looking.

I believe that odd hoop is a rogers hoop. Rogers hoops have those weird curved ears like that. I've been trying to study the differences in makes with triple flange hoops.
