Good day people .
I have a double bass Ludwig kit..classic series ,blue n green badges, brass ring ,6ply shells ..all toms are 78 ,,and snare ,,but i cant explain why bass drums, two 24 inch ones are different years ?,,but purchased as a complete kit when brought long ago ! the bass drums according to serial numbers .are 73 and 76.! 78 kit ,with ealier bass drums is weird ...mixed kit age...sorry
The bass drums have 2 seperate tom holders , going inside the bass drums ,,so its unlike John bonhams set , each tom holder, is mounted seperate into bass drum = bass drum one = one tom holder into it ,,bass drum 2 goes into it as well,,......
so to this day ,,I dont know what this particular luddy is ..seems to be a kit with in a kit !! the front on view is bass drum wise is 2 seperate bass drums on 2 seperate tom holders ,,
its more like carmin appices kit, late 70's double bass set up ..is that kit of his, a limited addition kit, his model series?? ..since he promoted it in late 70s ,early 80s? ....I wonder ? i hear ,back then ,he was huge fan of clear maple !
can some one tell me about this kit ? and its potential value?
Ive checked in Australia ..no ones, got a clear maple , classic series Ludwig late 70s double bass kit like this ..im very truthful on this ,,
Be 4, i sell it ,,i want an experts guidance on price ..its in Good condition for its age ..few scratchs n nicks and fade in colour ..other wise ..great sounding and matured and aged sound ..ready for a restoration in minimal area;s ..suit an absoulute Carmine Appice and john bonham style kit fan..
this kit is pure rock 70's kit ..and i believe it to be a collectors and restorer"s dream !!
cheers from rimshotjan..
p.s ,,He, who bangs the drum loudest ,shall surly be heard !
Hardest rock sound is gotta 2 be Ludwig ,,maybe Sonor to!..
