1970 Blue Mist Ludwig Standard

Loading...

New here to the forum. Hi to you all!!!

I bought this kit a couple of months ago from an older man who had listed it in the classifieds as "Old drum kit $300". I went to meet him in the parking lot of Dunkin Donuts. He pulled up in a old station wagon and parked. We greeted as he started to pull the items out the back. first thing I saw was evrything in 70's fibes cases. I opened the first one and their was a 8x12 tom, and then a 16x16 floor tom, and a 14x20 bass drum, and finally a 5x14 B/O Acrolite snare. All the original kit hardware included down to the hex key. I slap $300 in his hand as fast as i could, loaded my car and made a beeline home. Stripped cleaned, buffed the kit till it looked new. Came out beautiful. It sounds fantastic. These standard kits dont get any real respect. I need help from you guys finding Atlas cymbal stands, hi hat stand, snare stand and Zildjian 16 " crash.

Thanks for the forum, it's great!!!
