Ludwig Club Date w/ Original Jazz Fest, Champagne Sparkle Last viewed: 1 hour ago

Posts: 294 Threads: 47

Hey guys, I'm planning to buy my gf of 4 years a very nice engagement ring and reluctantly must sell one of my prized possessions.

Completely original '63 Ludwig Club Date in champagne sparke w/ nickel hardware. 12/14/20 and Jazz Festival snare. Very good condition w/ the cleanest nickel I've seen on a vintage kit. The 12" tom, bass drum and jazz fest were all "born together" in '63 and have matching serials. It's my understanding that the kit was sold without a floor tom and the original owner purchased this floor tom a few years later. Serials date it to about '65. It matches the rest of the drums nicely but there is some slight variation in the champagne sparkle wrap pattern, the sparkles on the other drums are a little more vibrant if that makes any sense..

The drums are all in very good condition. Some of these pictures are from from Gary at Drumfactory when I bought the kit a few years ago. He sourced it from the original owner, who was a jazz drummer somewhere in the mid west. If anyone is interested please shoot me a message. I will be forced to put these on eBay if they don't sell by the weekend. Asking $1500 + shipping obo.

Too quick. I would have bought them. That's what I get for shampooing the carpet for my wife before checking the VDF. :(
