A little help please.
When was my kit made? I can’t seem to figure it out. They are 3-ply with maple interiors. Thanks! Last edited by LudwigGuy; 03-28-2023 at 06:09 PM. |

Ok thanks!
I thought Ludwig had quit making 3-ply kits by that point, but I’m definitely no historian! My best guess is 78-79 as well. |

Just curious, if they’re 3 ply, do they have re- rings? I would think that’s kind of thin without them? Just guessing.

Yes, they are 3-ply with re-rings.

That’s awesome. I found this on the Ludwig site.

That just adds to the mystery. So mine may be a "combo" set but maybe ordered without the granitone and b/o badges? Who knows.

I think the badges are correct for the year but I have this other chart that says different about them being 6 ply clear maple- poplar for that year. Yeah, who knows?
