8-81 Ludwig Classic Shell Pack

Loading...

These Are Rock Size Drums, Make No Mistake. They Are In Excellent Condition. The Lugs Are Large Classics All The Way Around And Show Virtually No Pitting. I Have Done Lugs Off On The 13 And 14, The Bass Is Not Restored. I Will Do It, For An Additional $50. I Know That Seems High, But I Already Have Invested 6 Hours In The Toms And They Are Immaculate. Mahogany Cortex Is In Great Condition, With Minor Lifting At The Seams. Edges Are Perfect. The Original Heads Are Intact. The Rubber Boot Is Missing From One Bass Spur. The Bottom Hoop For The 13 Is Flaking Chrome, Very Minimal Pitting On Hoops. I Don't Like To Say None Because Sure As I Do, Someone Will Buy Them And Say There Is Some. This Is What You Get: 12x13 Mt, 13x14 Mt, 16x24 Bd. The Mounts On The Toms Hold Very Well, Especially Considering The Size Of These Toms. 6 Ply Classic Maple Shells In Excellent Condition There Is No Floor Tom Included, As The One That Came With Does Not Match. It Is For Sale Seperately. I Lost All My Pix Today. The Drive On My Laptop Crashed And I Ended Up Losing Irreplacable Photos And Other Important Stuff. I May Not Even Be Able To Access My Paypal Account Now Because, Well Because. So MoNEY ORDER With A Tracking # Before Shipment. I Will Quote Shipping Based On Your Information, And As Soon As Practical After I Get The Email With The Tracking Number The Drums Go On The Truck.

Both toms have the same lift at the seam, the box has all hardware wrapped very well individually cymbal is not included

BEST REASONABLE OFFER-PARTIAL TRADES FOR MIJ/STENCILS CONSIDERED. PREFER 20-12-14.

A soul could make that 14 into a nice floor tom. That 24 would be a sweet addition to any kit. That 13 could be easily cut down to a more reasonable size. Remember, no rerings to deal with!!! Those drums have lots of potential. Just thinking out loud. I personally don't need them, but you can see where they would be totally cool pieces. Nice stuff.

What's the controversy with re-rings? Seriously, theyare amazing, why does everyone hate them so much?

Re-rings (reinforcement rings ) are used on drums with lower numbers of plys. Like 3, 2, or 1. These drums need extra support ( reinforcement ) to maintain their structural integrity ( stay in round ).

Here's an example from a Japanese floor tom... it's the interior ring at the top and bottom. This is a luan mahogany shell ( it really needs the help ) 4- plys of wood... luan-somethingwood-somethingwood-luan. The grain runs top to bottom in this example as opposed to horizontally for higher quality drums.

Re-rings are good... no one hates the re-ring... re-rings are our friend...:)

If you already know all this, please don't take offense, but your question led me to believe that perhaps you might not. Anyway, hope it helps if it was needed.

And...............

Mcjnic's statement about "no re-rings to deal with" was made in regards to cutting back the depth of those toms, to reconfigure them into a jazzier sizes. They are 6-ply shells, and don't have re-rings, so to resize, you would not have to remove re-rings, cut down the drum, and then replace the re-rings. Less to "deal with".
