The page said these would have been for a 1980 or '81 catalog.

Can't seem to post more than one photo at a time...

Wonder if these had the rivets in the wrap?

My favorite, much better than Slingys Avante

I'm going to have to try this on a tom stand in between two kicks.

Why?..Need arms REALLY long to hit cymbals than...

I wouldn't set the cymbals that high, just three toms on one stand. 10/12/14 in standard depth.

ahhh..makes sense

I knew that Ludwig offered Die casts in a cast at sometime,now I know when.They are distinctive looking.I wonder if they are still offered.

The posted pic that showed the triple tom holder was the one MD used when they reviewed a kit.I don't remember them mentioning that the kit came die cast,I guess they were optional and did not come on the review kit.

looks like they were trying to out Roger Rogers around then... or visa versa...

Cheers
