I think there may be a slight language/comprehension barrier at play, here, so I'm going to break it down to the simplest of answers that I can make. This should clarify the answers to the questions that keep getting asked over and over and over again....hopefully. Here goes:
Thanks everyone for all answers!Ok, so, this isn't a genuine ludwig kit.The toms and snare drum ARE Ludwig I hope that the bass drum is PremierYes, it is, the snare is a Supra,Yes it is and hopely the toms are really Ludwigs. Yes, they areAnd because of that, because all of them had the same color, obviously this is a repaint.Yes, a terrible repaint done by a former ownerAlthough the badges are fake, they are sure look real, only way too big. The fake badges were made with similar material as the snare badge, which is considered original. Wow, that was quite an effort to do.Those over-sized badges are likely something that came from a piece of advertising propaganda, in my opinion. Then, they were affixed to the shells with improper aluminum grommets.As for the different floor brackets, my possible theory is that the original bracket was broken, and the person couldn't find any replacement, so he just replaced it with whatever was available.YesFor collectors, it would be worth zero. TrueFor me as a drummer, I actually looking for the quality of the drums, so if it is a mixed up kit, although honestly I'm kind of disappointed, I accept it, it's not a total loss.It should make a fine "player's kit"I still have questions:- Nowadays, drum manufacturers are offering many line of drums, starting from entry level kit to top of the line kits. How about back then in the 60s or 70s?Not really. Did they only provide one line of drums, like DW in the modern times?In order to keep the answer simple...Yes, for the most part.For example, I get a Supra snare from this kit, but is there any entry level Supra back then?No. If yes, could I be getting the low quality Supra?NoThe reason I'm asking is, at least I hope the drums that I got are good quality vintage drums.They appear to be- The Supraphonic Snare had really rough surface finish. If you touch it, it feels almost like a sandpaper.That's because it has been improperly painted. While I'm searching in the internet and also this forum, all Supraphonic snare shell were smooth and shiny.Yes Is this also a repaintYes, or did Ludwig actually produce this kind of Supra snare?No
