10x14" keystone ludwig floor/rack tom

Posts: 43 Threads: 10

I have a keystone badge(badge is missing), 3-ply w/ re-rings 10x14" ludwig tom. It was originally a natural maple, but the clear coat has been sanded off. It is in great shape and ready to be wrapped, or stained(the outer ply looks very good). This tom was originally a single-headed floor tom(there are holes for 3 club date leg mounts). there are NO holes drilled for a rack mount. I have a suspension mount for it(available also for another $25). 6 additional small classic lugs have been installed and the resonant side bearing edge has been cut to the the original specifications to convert it into a double-headed rack tom. also comes with tension rods. The only thing this drum needs are 2 rims, heads, and a finishing job.

I bought it on ebay to, strip, stain, convert to a double headed rack tom, and match my kit, but decided not to finish.

$100 + shipping, OBO

Since there is no price listed, I will offer you Fifty Cents for it, shipped. I am guessing that since you didn't bother listing a price, it has no value to you. It is worth the .50 to me.

Club Dates never had a 10x14 floor tom.

Not certain, but I'm thinking there was not a 10x14 drum during the Keystone era?

Not knocking the drum, just the ID.

Well, all I know is that it had a keystone badge, it is 3-ply maple/poplar/maple w/rings, and the only holes it has are for club date leg mounts(no other holes for mounting hardware).

Plexi, I will edit my posting, thank you for pointing that out.

That's cool, bro....

Here's a link to the Drum guide, it may help you out on narrowing down details and IDs going forward.

There's no snare beds, and it was originally single-headed, so that rules out a snare.

I found these for sale, and the one i have is identical to the 14"(minus the presence of the mounts)
