13 years ago1969 Ludwig Kit-Should I Buy??
So it didn't come with muffler on the floor tom? Okay, in my experience, with original Ludwig wrap; if you look at the bearing edge of the drum, wher...

No hostility here, (just to start out on the right foot) but you might recall an item that I'd posted a few days ago, requesting help in identifying s...
13 years ago1969 Ludwig Kit-Should I Buy??

Just as an aside - if one were shopping for a new Ludwig kit back in 69, and they'd had the choice of the old style badge, and the brand new blue/oliv...

You seem to like the smaller kick drums. I have an 18" fiberglass pearl floor tom I'm planning to covert, and build a small kit around. Did it with...
13 years agoCan Anyone Identify These Drums?
I'll have some of what they're having... Yeah, probably Marty McFly syndrome - public not quite ready for it, or else; how do you follow that one? I...
