Ludwig drumkit

Loading...

Hi there, im on the edge of buying this used drumkit from some guy on the internet, but i don’t know which kit is it. I’ve been looking around and the most aproximate i get was a Rocker II, but even so i don’t think that is it.

Can someone help me please? Thanks

Someone on the VDF will give you a definitive answer soon I’m sure, but I do know that those are the Standard style lugs, and they were used on Rocker kits with that badge. Rocker or Rocker II? That’s what I’m unsure of. If you like the sizes, they should tune up and sound very good.

Stop stringing and tuning your instrument, make music now.

Looks like a rocker with clear interiors, should sound nice.

Not sure of the tom mount and the toms are upside down.

It has a pearl mount on it now instead of the ludwig mount. If you can get them really cheap, I wouldn't go much over $150,00 myself on them, I have a set of rocker II myself in this same color, I just sold a set of rockers with the good Maple/poplar shells.

I’ve been searching and its definitely Ludwig tom mount

The 150 price is exactly what he is asking but in euros.

Nice kit Mario. That might not be a USA kit. That might be one made in Taiwan. A USA made kit would have "USA" on the badge. Seems like a good deal though and it appears to be in good shape.

Those aren't the ludwig tom mounts that go on Rockers, on accents not Rockers.. here look at these links, http://www.vintagedrumguide.com/ludwig_rockers.html http://www.vintagedrumguide.com/images/ludwig_sets/1984_ludwig_drumsets25.jpg

I didn’t say it was a Ludwig Rocker tom mount, i just said that it is a Ludwig mount, not a Pearl mount.

Taiwanese era rocker kit.

Pass on it.

Everyone refers to the 7/8" pipe mounts as "pearl style" USA rocker II's would have 9.5mm L arms and the brackets would match the floortom brackets.
