Quick Question …

Where is Ringo´s original Drum Kit that he played on the Ed Sullivan Show?

And what is the story behind it?

Thanks in advance for your response.

I have a set of collector’s Ludwig Ringo Starr black oyster pearl drums that were #42 of 45 made in 2002. I still have the original cardboard boxes that came with the set, each box having #42 printed on the side. Kit includes 2 cymbal stands, snare stand, hi-hat stand and Speed King bass drum pedal. They are in excellent condition and have been played very little. They look exactly like the above picture. Is there anyone who would be interested in purchasing them or who could help me sell them? They belonged to my husband who passed asway in June, 2009.

Ringo never had double-braced stands.

(By the way ‘bin’ is British-speak for ‘trash’)

I believe Ludwig tried to get Ringo Starr to sign these kits but they missed his deadline and be put them all in the bin.

Peace & love! Peace & love!
