Ludwig Vintage 6 Piece....? Please help identify...:D Last viewed: 1 day ago

Posts: 3 Threads: 1

I have a 6 piece Ludwig. It's been in the family for about 25 years?????...but any further back than that, I have no idea how old it is. The original finish was stripped and refinished. It might originally have been black.

Here's a link to the pictures I have of the drum set....

I can take better pictures of need be... :)

Cheers!

66/67 downbeat with canister
Super 400 small round knob
1967 super classic obp





once the brass ceases to glitter, and the drum looses its luster, and the stage remains dark, all you have left is the timbre of family.

Thank you, thank you so much everyone! This is a good start.....:)

I'm planning on moving in the very near future and clearing out a lot of things that seem to take up room. I'm a minimalist. How much could this go for? To sell it, can I list it as a Ludwig Mid 80's Rocker? Or will I need more details? I want to be as specific as possible to not mislead anyone...

Thanks in advance!
