I just bought this 1966 Luddy downbeat (sans snare) from Don Bennett (lovely bloke, would like to meet him one day), shipped to Oz for a bit over $3000USD all up, which is probably a lot, but the kit is beautiful and in such good condition I didn't mind forking out. These are some pics from the ad. Can't wait to take it out for a test drive - jazz gig this Friday!

Loving all the kits on this thread, by the way, nice to be able to add one of my own!

Cheers,

Trev

Thanks Grantro! It sounds brilliant too. Did a 50s rock'n'roll gig on it last night and it went off! I have a '66 supra as well, which is coincidental, and it's perfect with this little baby!

once the brass ceases to glitter, and the drum looses its luster, and the stage remains dark, all you have left is the timbre of family.
