Pictured here for the first time completely set up, My Mid-70's 3-ply Ludwig's in Red and Champagne Sparkle. The 22" bass drum and 16" Floor tom are the original kit. When I bought it 2011 it came originally with a 12 X 8 rack tom. I paid $40.00 for all 3 drums. Yes you read right, that is not a typo. In 2012 I added the 14 X 10 wrapped to match as closely as possible. And just this summer I finally added the 18 X 16 wrapped to match. Unfortunately I don't have the 12 X 8 anymore. I stupidly sold it cause I needed $$$$.
How does it sound you ask?? Well I played it as a 4-piece about 7-8 years ago and it sounded incredible. But I haven't played it since. Probably because I didn't have a place to play it. Never thought I could love a drum set as much as I love these old Ludwig's. They are my pride and joy. With the money I originally spent to purchase the kit, and what I have put into it over the last 9 years. I'm keeping them until the day I die.
