Ludwig Tom Holder Tube diameter?

Posts: 1685 Threads: 529

I just got a Ludwig double tom holder as a throw in with an Atlas cymbal stand. It is missing the two L-arms, but everything else is present.

When I eventually get my Blue Mist Ludwig Standard kit like I had when I was a kid (notice I say "When" not "If"!), I thought about using a double tom holder with it (if the kit comes with a single tom holder). Anyway, the tube diameter seems bigger than what I remember. This has a very long downtube (19.5") with the "keyhole" memory clamp. The downtube diameter is 15/16". (Photos Below)

Both photos are from the ebay auction, and both tubes fit into the Atlas base.

Was this possibly for a tom stand and not for use on a bass drum? Does anyone know what the tube diameter is for the tom holder (single or double) on Standard kits?

Thanks,

The tube diameter was smaller for the Standard series. The tube you have is for Classics and vistalites. The L arms will work for the toms but wont fit the bass drum mount.
