Hi all,

Just thought I should post some pics on my MINT Ludwig beauties, since I believe they are quite rare.

First of all the original tom holder is placed on the right side (for a left handed drummer) of the bass drum. And then there are some other stuff that might intereset some of you collectors out there (me, I'm just a simple player band3 ).

Bass drum: serial number 5612 and newer style spur mounts. No cymbal arm mount and no date stamp.

Rack tom: serial 479354 and old style tom holder mount (pre -64?). Date stamp -67.

Floor tom: serial 5633 and old style leg mounts. Key stone badge placed in the center of the drum shell.

The set was sold as a complete kit in a music store in Sweden in the late 60:s.

Cheers!

No, it's a 70's acrolite. And it sounds great by the way...
