1960's Ludwig Downbeat 3pc Drum Set - Silver Sparkle - 12x8, 14x14, 20x14

Here's a great example of a high quality, yet affordable vintage player's drum kit. 

Date stamped December 10th 1969, this kit is right on the cusp of the transition era for Ludwig. 

Painted interiors (white) -

3 ply Maple/Poplar shells. 

The edges have been re-cut by Precision Drum Co. to the same specs of the original factory cut. 

Baseball bat mufflers on the toms

Fully functional rail mount and cymbal holder on the bass drum

All components function well.  No lug issues or major pitting. 

Floor tom legs seem to be aftermarket

Serial numbers and badges intact - 

Bass drum SN: 204100

Tom SN: 220166

Floor tom SN: 217276

Some slight wrap lifting at the seam on the batter side of the floor tom, but it is completely mendable and does not disrupt the integrity of the drum. 

The bass drum hoop on the batter side is a GIbraltar (painted black) - the reso side is original. 

Feel free to ask any questions regarding this or anything else we carry! 

Available at the only drum shop in Boston!
