It looks like Ludwig is gearing up for a great 2022. So far what they have come out with is awesome. Does anyone have any ideas of what else they are planning to release this year? I saw their teaser on Facebook and it’s got me pumped.

Billy Corgan is the latest member of the celebrity Reverb seller club where everything is well used and overpriced. This is a pretty cool looking kit though. Is this factory Ludwig? https://reverb.com/item/44994813-ludwig-vistalite-drum-kit-owned-by-billy-corgan

What does everybody think about the last few limited edition brass snares from Ludwig? One is red, one is white, and one is blue. I actually love the red, but it’s only offered in 8-Lug, so that kills it for me. In general though, I love the idea of the colored metal Ludwig snares. I think they...

I ordered a new 14”x18” DW Collector’s floor tom 10 months ago to match my current kit. I had posted something about this a while back and a bunch of you asked for an update once it arrived. Well, it’s here! I also had to send in my 11”x14” tom for color/finish matching and it also just arrived...

These are some of the most musical sounding vintage drums I have ever had the pleasure of playing. I have owned a 12/14/20 configuration in just about every vintage brand from this era and this is by far my favorite kit of the bunch. Every drum SINGS. I've also never seen chrome this pristine on...

Hello, I need help identifying the age and potential price range for my older Slingerland kit. I need to sell it relatively soon but I'm not gonna cheat myself out of a good price. Any help is greatly appreciated. I currently have them listed for $1,800.

I know that this kind of products work for several purposes, but to be honest, I only want to use them to eliminate the detune of the tension rods, in my case I'm going to use them for the snare. Now I only have the metal washers that came with it, so I'm planning to add the sleeved washers...

I'm attracted to the price of the supralite, but I have read that it has some problems, like lugs that are stripping out easily and also problems with the snare wires. Has anyone had this kind of problem with the supralite? or some other problem?

I recently purchased some large Space Saver vacuum bags for storage at the house and realized they might be awesome for long term drum storage. I figure if the drums are vacuum sealed, the bags should slow oxidation of the chrome? So I tried it out and included a silica packet in each one. I...

I came across this video from 9 years ago when I was only 20 years young. It’s me playing the kit for a contest. Only a minute long. It’s really cool to look back at stuff like this just to see how much I’ve progressed. It’s also fun identifying my old habits and limitations on the kit. I’ve...

Hello, I’m very new here and I joined to see if I could get help on what drum set I should choose- First off, I think I should say that I have a really low budget. I currently have around $250, but I know I will have to save up more. I was looking at a few drum sets that I think I’ll be able...

Extremely Clean Canopus RFM Drum Kit. Hi thanks for looking. I am the second owner of this kit. It has been kept in a climate controlled recording studio its entire life and has not been gigged with - I have a separate kit for that. All of the kit's edges are in brand new condition and it was...

Hi! I need help with what kit i should buy. It`s between PEARL SESSION STUDIO SELECT and PEARL MASTERS MAPLE COMPLETE. I`m going to travel a lot with the kit since i`m going to use it for touring , So i need something with good quality that will last and take a lot. I play and hit very hard...

Hello, I'm a pop producer and most of the time use MIDI for my productions, especially my drums. There was a particular snare that I heard from a YouTube video online that I would like to learn how to duplicate on my own - electronically. Is there a way I can tune a similar sounding snare that I...

Hey guys. I’m new to the forum. I bought an incomplete “Ludwig” drum kit off Facebook last week in the hopes of restoring it and having it be playable. I intend to use the kit to record some tracks eventually. I’ve attached photos of the kit in its original condition with cracked black wraps...

Hey All, I started (or rather re-started after a decade) a YouTube channel. Inspired by our current situation, it is called, for now, “Quarantine Music” (I’ll need something better when this is all over!). Lots of short clips with lessons, how to’s, instrument demos, photo essays and visual...

Sorry if this is in the wrong place. I looked for a “show your gear/drumset” thread, but couldn’t find (just) one. If a mod needs to move this, no problem and sorry again... Here is my main drum kit and some of my percussion (so much all over the region with stuff in the classroom, in storage...

Hey guys, Just letting you know I am selling my vintage drum collection. I have several awesome kits and tons of parts for sell. I have created a YouTube channel to help me sell these items. I will be uploading new videos every week that feature lots of hard to find vintage drum parts as well as...
