GREAT sounding drums!! VERY LOUD with minimal input and they SOUND LIKE 1960s LUDWIGS! The kit was tuned for rock/metal (a bit lower pitched than I would prefer...the 18" floor tom was almost subsonic). There were two other high-end kits on the floor (one by the major Japanese label...the other by the vaunted U.S. manufacturer whose shells are "individually pitch-matched and marked") and the Ludwigs could absolutely convince you that they were worth every penny of the $3500+ price. They would also convince you that the two other high-end kits on the floor should only cost half as much! WAY TO GO, LUDWIG!

These oval shaped things are getting pretty stale. I wish they’d come up with a better badge. These oval shaped things are getting pretty stale.
