Champagne sparkle lovers, here’s an opportunity to own a  beautiful vintage Ludwig 14 x 20 downbeat-style  bass drum from the late ‘60’s/early  ‘70’s.  The shell is 3 ply with re-rings with a clear maple interior. Blue/olive badge has a serial number of 971288. One pair of 5/16” arched disappearing spurs plants it firmly on the ground while the  ratchet -style rail console mount with blocked Ludwig logo can adequately support any  8 x 12 or 9 x 13 rack tom. The wrap is vibrant and tight  at both seams but has about a 1” band of  discolored area  near a bottom seam that  runs across the drum  (see photo).  Chrome hardware is bright and shinny with very little pitting on the lugs and T rods.  Both hoops have all the pearl  in lay  in tact but there are a few spots of missing black paint and one area at the bottom of a hoop that has been taped to protect where the pedal was attached.  Bearing edges are fine and the drum is in round.  One beautiful drum priced accordingly at $525.00  Do NOT  miss this one
