How rare is this

Posts: 63 Threads: 16

Hi.

I picked up a Ludwig Butcher Block 5 piece the other day, all concert toms, including the undrilled for front head lugs bass drum (22").

I have not been able to find any others around in this configuration (it is from, the early 70's), and was wondering if anyone else has similar?

Could it have been special ordered this way?

Cheers

Any chance the bass drum once had lugs and the holes have been filled?

Not that I can see, unless it was an amazingly good job.

Ludwig did actually make sets with full "concert tom style" shells, including bass drums..

This is the second example i've seen from the internet, and both were Butcher Block !

Could this be the same kit i saw a few years back ? Who knows !

It maybe. It came from Chicago, but now lives in Australia. Well traveled kit :-)
