What do i have on my hands?? vintage Ludwig? Last viewed: 3 hours ago

Loading...

LIKE a good neighbor indeed! While out mowing the lawn today, neighbor lady across the street, flags me down...asked if wanted her ex husbands old drum kit. I didn't even knew he played drums! She said otherwise going to the dump! SO, took them off her hands. What do I have? Junk or Score??

Definitely old wooden vintage Ludwigs, snare bottom, tom and bass..along with old high hat and cymbal stand. Even had a new Tama pressure gauge in box!

You did real good! That's aged 3-ply mahogany. Warm sounding drums. The Pioneer is just a great 'growling' classic snare drum. Everybody should have one in their arsenal. Great find! Lucky guy.

Too many great drums to list here!

Looks like it might be a single tension bass like from the Spotlight Outfit (early 60s). Can't see the top of the bass to know for sure. Is there a tom mount on the bass?
