This Ludwig Hollywood Drum set ordered in August 1964 and delivered in October 1964. My husband is the original owner and it is Mint Condition in Sparkling Silver Pearl finish. The set has the Supra-Phonic 400 chrome metal snare drum which was a special order at the time. This was so popular that Ludwig subsequently made it standard in the set. During the summer of 2005 all of the drum hardware was re-chromed along with the snare drum. Subsequently a new 16×18 floor tom was added, an original 18×20 floor tom could not be found or obtained from Ludwig (Ludwig had stopped the 18×20 floor tom production) therefore the substitution. The leg lugs on the new floor tom was such a better design from the originals the leg lugs on the bass drum and 16×16 floor tom were replaced with the new design. The Ludwig cymbal stands upper portion were switched from the Ludwig’s with a new and much better design by VERVE. Therefore the cymbal stands have the original Ludwig appearance. The Zildjian Cymbals are new and never played on (14″ Hi-Hat, 22″ Medium Ride, 10 Crash). The Hi-Hat Stand is what has now become the “Ringo” designation as per the model number. The seat case Mackintosh carrying cover was custom made with much better material that the original as the original cover was in such poor condition due to age and wear. The padded seat case red top is original. The seat case has not been manufactured since the late 1960’s and are extremely rare & hard to find. The front bass drum head is new with the Ludwig Logo painted on instead of a decal, however the original head is included. This set is as original as it came from the Ludwig factory. The set comes with fibre cases with new leather straps except the 16×18 floor tom which has no case. This set has been very well taken care of and ready to go to work. This is a Super fine example of Vintage Ludwig Drums without modifications, however all of the original Ludwig parts are included, also with the Ludwig Cymbal Stands upper portion. Snare Drum #64766, Bass Drum #66244, Seat Case #384862, 8×12 Tom #67594, 8×12 Tom #67595, 16×16 Floor Tom #66252, 16×18 Floor Tom #3414372. The numbers on the Ludwig drums/seat case can be verified as to the date of manufacture on the Ludwig web site. This is about as original as it gets for the age!
