Here is a brand new Ludwig Classic Maple set, sized 14x20", 8x12", 14x14" Downbeat at its core with a second 16x16" added for some extra low end at the tail, the 'Two-Downbeat' as I'd call it. These are finished in our latest collaborative finish with Ludwig - Fire Burst Pearl, exclusive to us at Maxwell Drums. I asked Ludwig to create this wrap for me as a nod to the similar wrap Ludwig had in the 1930's. This finish can be ordered in Legacy maple and mahogany, as well as Classic Maple to your custom specifications - contact us for more info!
Here is what Ludwig has to say about their Classic Maple series drums:
"Classic Maple's standard 7-ply, 6mm shell is formulated for optimum resonance and tonality. Its center three-ply core panel (laminated in a horizontal/vertical/horizontal grain bond to a 2.4mm thickness,) is inserted between inner and outer two-ply panels through our proprietary RFST molding process. To increase stability through out the drum, all Ludwig USA shells are produced using Radio Frequency Shell Technology. Using a process involving our historic bladder molds that date back to the late 1960's, R.F.S.T.'s unique bonding system -combined with a specialized, time-tested adhesive - cures each shell evenly over the entire surface of the shell. This process is truly a principal ingredient in creating the "Ludwig Sound" in every shell we make. Each drum's bearing edge is cut to a 45-degree angle within 1/16" from the outside edge. This profile is critical for a wide tuning range, and maximum sustain. The edge is hand-sanded to the craftsman's touch to assure a smooth, even, flat surface for easy head seating; the final touch to complete the unmistakable Ludwig Sound."
