1960 Ludwig Champagne Sparkle

Loading...

Bought this drum set one drum after the other.

Kick, 13" Tom and Floor are from 1967, the 12" from 1964.

The 12" has nickle hardware, can't really tell though if you're not standing right in front of the kit.

i also have a matching pioneer snare. Would these kits normally come with a 14x5 supra?

[COLOR="DarkRed"]In the photo, the 13, FT and Bass all seem to be of the same kit, a nice color match...rack seems to have faded differently...but that's hard to find, such a faded match.

IMHO, I think it no big deal to mix nickel tom with the ret in chrome. Worst-case scenario...you can always find chrome lugs....easier than finding nickel ones.

Nice job of piecing together, there. All in all, it looks great.[/COLOR]

Thanks for the comments!

looking at the 12" closely, it indeed looks different, the sparkle is a little rougher, not as fine as on the other drums. almost looks a bit like a "different" wrap. but as i said, from the normal distance, hardly noticable ....

Yes. A Supra would have been the "standard" snare drum for that configuration.
