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.

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 today, yesterday and tomorrow.
