Questlove's Ludwig Breakbeats
I'm not overly impressed with them. They have a cheap feel to them but might be a great travel kit due to size.

I still own them! The blue Yamahas. And they've gotten better with age.... I just can't get enough of them (obviously)

9 years agoWhat are late 70's-early 80's 22" A's going for ON AVERAGE?
