Ludwig Legacy Classic Bass Drum (Standard Wrap). 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.
