1976 Ludwig Stainless Steel Bop kit

Posts: 135 Threads: 14

Kit was made from abused marching concert tom shells in sizes 8x12, 10x14, and 10x18. Hand planished, sanded, polished to return their former glory. One kit Ludwig never made!

What a great way to recycle and restore marching drums into cool (one of a kind) jazz drums.
