1966 Ludwig Club Date

club date 1966 ludwig vintage
Posts: 28 Threads: 10

Really excited about this 1966 Club Date kit. It came with original factory heads on both sides of all the drums. I am the first person to change the heads!! Included were the Ludwig stands, cowbell, pedals hi hat and Ludwig/Paiste cymbals that came with the kit in 1966. The finish is perfect, I think this set spent it's whole existence in storage. I am the 2nd owner. It has the Acrolite snare drum as well and a second 12" rack tom (with an additional mount.)

Thank you, I couldn't be happier!

I played these out on Saturday night - by far, the best kit I've ever played!

Really nice! I have the same year in blue sparkle. I have a love/hate relationship with mine... Floor tom sounds great, but the rail mount chokes my rack tom badly. Sounds better on a snare stand though. Some times I love 'em!! ...other times not so much.
