''Levon Helm'' Wooden hoop Ludwig kit

Posts: 222 Threads: 27

This project is finally done!! My tribute to Levon Helm, my drum hero. I started piecing this kit together about two years ago. Levon's death really saddened me, i'm real glad to have this kit to remember him. They're great fun to play, and they sound as good as they look! I also kept the light bulb in the bass drum installed flowers2 Enjoy

I can't believe the work you've put into this, I hadn't seen your original thread. What a fantastic, talented and dedicated young man you are, and one with great taste and maturity to single out the work of Levon Helm.

I can't congratulate you enough on this, enjoy those drums, you've earned them.
