Loading...

Ok Im back again, still havent identified what kit this is or what year it is. These are all the pictures i have for it. The sizes are 22x14, 16x16, 14x10 and 13x9. I've been told that this is an early 80's kit but I didn't think 80's kits had the b/o badge? If anyone could help me that Id this kit that would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!!

Can't make out the serial number on the badge. That would help some. But Ludwig was using the rounded corner b/o badge in the late 70's/early 80's. That particular reso logo on the bass drum was also used in the early 80's.

Looks like a early Rocker kit, they had Classic lugs at some point in their life.

Also looks like Lude-Cote interior paint, which was Rocker thing.

Found it!!

Ludwig Rockers never had a B/O badge though, rockers only have b/w

THe heads on the tom do say "rocker" on it. But i just dont see how this is an Rockers kit, I dont think I have ever seen a rockers kit with blue/olive badges. Maybe this is a big beat kit from 79' or something?

Looks like Ludwig had Rocker logo clear heads and silver dot heads before they actually had a line of kits called Rocker. And B/O badges are still evident in the '84 catalog.

Probably not a set of Rockers then but why are the interiors Lude-Cote!

Rockers on the heads doesn't mean Rocker drums. Ludwig had three (or four) different types of heads they gave names too. Striders (Marching), Ensemble (concert) and Rockers (obvious).

The B/O badge was used until 1984.

What are the serial numbers?
