If you have not had the pleasure to play a set of Stainless steel Ludwigs. You would not understand the pure tone and power of them, Nothing else sounds or performs like them, I have owned a lot of drum kit. Only a few 28" bass drum kits I've owned even come close to How the stainless steel vibrate your whole body and soul.

Wow!! They're gorgeous drums, the sizes are real monsters! There's a reason Bonzo used them live for three years!! The sound and tone of those drums are spectacular. Enjoy them man.
