Tradition, Craftsmanship, and Visionary Excellence; these are the values at the center of Ludwig’s classic legacy. With these values comes 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. Combining the benefits of today’s most advanced drum making processes, with the know-how that comes with making drums for nearly a century, Ludwig’s new 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 re-think of the legendary, reinforced 3-ply Ludwig drum shells that set the standard for popular music throughout the 20th Century.

Incorporating the many of the same methods used through-out 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.

There are many options to chose from when building your dream Legacy Classic drum set. You can choose from lug design, bass drum spurs, various heads, cymbal mounts, tom mounts, and so on.
