Ludwig 90th Anniversary Last viewed: 11 hours ago

Loading...

An old friend called me this week and asked my advice pricing a Ludwig Black Oyster 22/13/16/matching snare 90th anniversary kit #13 of 45. I had to admit I had no idea. Have these limited editions held their value or are they just a sales gimmick?

Well unfortunately this kit is available new today in the same sizes/finish - sans the 90th anniversary badges, so...

Is it a gimmick? No, it's marketing at its finest!

I've seen two "unplaled" 90th anniversay snares sitting on eBay for a long, long time... no action. Appearently nobody is willing to pay a couple hundred extra bucks, over a newly produced product, just to have the badges and certificate.

Takes a special buyer to be willing to pay an "anniversary" premium.
