Fantastic! And they are still very, very, burgundy! What's wrapped around the center post of the tom holder?

Nice, clean kit! Is that masking tape on the tom holder? I can't see well anymore. :(

Yes, masking tape, but I don't know why. It must be cracked. I never take out the 8x12 tom, to be honest, so I don't use the holder. I'm still using the Ambassadors they came with, as they sound fine. Bought them from a forum member in Maryland.

The original owner was a drummer who worked the Atlantic City casino and club circuit. I stopped using the original spurs, because they weren't holding very well. I now have a set of DW clip-on spurs that get the job done.

I'm generally not a big Ludwig guy, but Burgundy Sparkle is my favorite finish of theirs, and I had a set years ago and mistakenly sold them. These more than make up for that error.

Very classic. Very 60's Ludwig.

Thanks for all the compliments. I used this kit yesterday on the gig, and they always sound good. I'm changing the heads soon; Evans UV-1s on the tom batters, and Genera Resos on the bottoms.
