Players grade! Not the prettiest, but an affordable way to get that legendary 1960s Ludwig sound! Refurbished and ready to rock. Super Classic sizes are great for rock and pop playing. The 3-ply mahogany/poplar/maple shells are warm and thuddy. The wrap has faded from a silver sparkle into "ginger ale" sparkle. All drums are missing badges but you can purchase and install affordable replicas to get that look--Bumwrap sells them for about $30 each. They're not perfect, but they will sound great and hold up for decades more to come!
