Early '70s Ludwig Classics in Champagne Sparkle (24-inch Bass Drum)

I'm looking for 3-ply Ludwig Classics, preferably in champagne sparkle and preferably with the original wrap and hardware. However, the ply make up and condition of the shell are the most important thing.

After doing more research I've learned blue and olive serial numbers are really only good for determining what year the badge was made, not the shell itself. As long as it's a 3-ply shell with good bearing edges I'm happy, and if it has early '70s hardware I'm even happier!

24x14

16x16

18x16

Individual drums are fine. I'm not terribly worried about having paired drums.

[SIZE="3"]Thanks to tama1310707 I've knocked three drums off the list: 13x9, 14x10 and a 15x12![/SIZE]

[SIZE="3"]Got my 16x16 this past Friday! I have a 24x14 project shell but I'm still looking keeping my eyes peeled for a complete drum![/SIZE]

Bump. Been scouring the web but haven't found anything worth getting excited over.

Super Beat kits are hard to come by, DQ.

Yep, you're right. The more I look the more I think I need to just focus on individual drums, and I think I'm gonna start looking for marching bass drums for the kick. I've found very few 24-inch kicks and none without the central tom mount, which I don't really care for.
