Are you wanting the vintage muffler? If not, Pearl makes one that will work and they are cheap and look similar.

My kit:
Ludwig Vistalite Big Beat set consisting of:
14” X 22” bass, 16” X 16” floor tom, 8” X 12” ride tom, 9” X 13” ride tom, 5” X 14” snare
Ludwig 201 Speed King bass drum pedal
Ludwig 1124 Spur-lok hit-hat with Ludwig Standard Paiste 14” cymbals (760 & 770 gr) with ching-ring
Two Ludwig Standard S-270 cymbals stands
18” Zildjian crash cymbal (1550 gr) and 20” Zildjian ride cymbal (2130 gr) with CAMCO sizzler
Gibraltar motorcycle seat-style drum throne with backrest

Going from the seam those are absolutely 100%. - Truthfully though the " fakes " are high end and made by a company named RCI. Honestly they are just as great. But these are certainly genuine Ludwig's and not a modern made set.

I say real. The seams will tell you. But the reality is, the reissue or "fake" shells are really expensive. So if someone is gonna fake one, it would be a rare color like green, or any of the patterns.
