 Here is one you dont see often. An unmolested 67 Ludwig classic series drumset. Likely the most recorded drum sound of all time, made famous by the Beatles amongst many others. If you are here you likely dont need a history lesson though, so lets move on to the good stuff. NO extra holes. Shells are in round and bearing edges look good. Dates read Oct 30/31st 1967. S/N Are as follows 12" 543XXX,13" 543XXX,16" 459XXX, 22"542XXX    Wrap has dulled out over years. After excurciating examination, I found one very subtle hairline in the wrap on bass drum, and one equally as subtle on 12". Again they are very minor,very subtle and you really have to be looking for them. One of the original inlays is even still in tact!!! The other one if halfway there, meaning you can position bass drum to hide the half that is not. Hardware of course has a bit of build up of oxidation in spots , scratches,etc consistent with a drum from 67. Baseball bat mufflers all still in tact and work. All brand new heads all the way around. Clear remos on the bottoms, Coated ambassadors on the tom batters, and aqaurian superkick batter for bass drum. This kit needs nothing. Cosmetically there are methods online people have used to restore this wraps to their original luster, As well as those people use to restore the chrome. That would be up to new owner, as I liked the kit as is. Interior pics are of bass drum,12,13,16 in that order. No international shipping. No shipping to HI/AK/US Territories. Thanks.
