Legacy Maple Series: Vintage Ludwig drums featuring the classic 3-ply shell construction from Ludwig’s Golden Era are treasured for tonal purity in recording environments. As Ludwig’s flagship professional drum line, Legacy Maple is a decidedly modern twist on our vintage shell formula.
Shell:
1/16″ Maple Outer Ply, 1/8″ Poplar Core Ply, 1/16″ Maple Inner Ply with 1/4″ Solid Maple Reinforcement Rings.
The key to Legacy’s classic tone begins with a cross-laminated American Poplar center ply to lend focus to the warm, sustained resonance of inner/outer Maple plies. This unique shell combination is further stabilized by a specially-rounded bearing edge with single-ply reinforcement rings.
Bearing Edge:
30 inner cut with a 1/8 radius roundover
Producing a pure, well-rounded sonic footprint, Legacy Series revives the distinctive sound that set the standard for popular music throughout the 20th Century.
This is a B-stock model that was made slightly wrong at the Ludwig factory. This drum features an exotic lacewood inner ply, but a plain maple outer ply. There are no other issues, and the drum functions and sounds great … just as it should!
