The return of an American classic.
Ludwig Legacy Classic drums are created with a commitment as true as the care and pride that goes into each drum, hand crafted at Ludwig's manufacturing facility in the North Carolina foothills. It is with this ethic in mind that Ludwig celebrates the return of a true American classic.
Combining the benefits of today's most advanced drum making processes with the know how that comes with manufacturing drums for nearly a century, Ludwig's Legacy Classic Series drums revive the distinctive sound of the world's most famous drums. These custom built, American made percussion instruments are based on a modern rethinking of the legendary, reinforced 3 ply Ludwig drum shells that set the standard for popular music throughout the 20th Century.
Incorporating many of the same methods used throughout its long and illustrious history, Ludwig's exclusive Legacy Classic shells are made in house from the choicest cuts of hand selected North American hardwoods. At its core is a single 1/8" ply of premium poplar for unyielding warmth and resonance. Inner and outer plies of 1/16" premium grade North American maple are then cross laminated to the core to reproduce that magical balance of power and clarity for the modern era. This proven design is then augmented with 1/4" single ply maple reinforcement hoops, and rounded, classic cut bearing edges for thundering lows and pronounced cut in any musical situation. These shells are then dressed up in classic wrap finishes. All Legacy Classic drums also feature Ludwig's Classic mini lugs and traditional "Keystone" badges.
But Legacy Classic is not merely a blast from the past. These drums take full advantage of state of the art manufacturing, careful quality control, and a host of upgrades and innovations that only a company with Ludwig's experience and expertise can offer. For the discriminating professional, serious part time player, and vintage and contemporary collector alike, Legacy Classic is truly the best of yesterday, today, and tomorrow.
