Hi guys .
my name is Janssen .i am from Australia ..i have a 1979 vintage Ludwig .classic series kit ,,that seems to be a hybrid kit of carmine Appice and John Bonham - 2 times- 24 inch kicks , 14 inch and 15 inch toms and a 18 inch floor tom with 6 and half Supra phonic snare . the toms are seperately mounted on each bass drum on a neck going into the bass drum..blue and green badges ,,all natural yellow maple wood ..no wraps !! 6ply ..
This kit, is the only one i know of in Australia! ..it is in good condition , but age wise ,,theres a few nicks n scratches on the wood toms and bass drum .
but seems to add to the character of this vintage classic ..it truely is a slice of Luddy history ..the shells are round and bearing edges are fine .one or 2 lugs may
need replacing..
Its just sitting in garage now ..as i am hearing impaired , i am deaf from natural causes and loud hard rock abuse - I want to pass the baton on to some one who appreciates this kind of kit - full stop !
This kit is stadium thunder personified !!
Was bought in 1980 for US $5000..I dont think it has lost its value despite its age !! ...........................................................................................
Any potential guys interested . $5000 is my starting price ..plus, pay for all shipping and packaging etc from Australia -any one interested ?..reply me ..this kit is the real classic deal !
All decent offers considered !
cheers and rock hard -Happy new years 2012 from down under Australia - Janssen .band3
