Ludwig Legacy Classic Drums

Ludwig’s Legacy Classic drums are the embodiment of Ludwig’s core values of tradition, craftsmanship and visionary excellence. Ludwig Legacy Classic drums are hand-crafted at Ludwig’s drum manufacturing facility in Monroe, North Carolina. Ludwig’s Legacy Classic drums combine the benefits of today’s most advanced manufacturing processes with the experience that comes with a century of drum making. These custom-built American-made drums are a modern interpretation of the legendary Ludwig shells that set the standard for popular music throughout the 20th Century.

Ludwig Legacy Classic drums are made from choice cuts of hand- selected North American hardwoods. A core ply of premium Poplar yields warmth and resonance while cross- laminated inner and outer plies of Maple deliver power and clarity. 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 articulation, suitable for any musical style.

Ludwig Legacy Exotic Drums

Ludwig Legacy Exotic Drums are a stunning rethink to a modern classic. Ludwig’s Legacy Exotic line of drum sets and snare drums applies many of the same shell-making properties that have been refined over the past century, This flagship professional drum line employs the 3-ply combination of inner and outer North American Maple and the traditional single Poplar core ply with solid Maple reinforcement rings; forging a rich sonic warmth that is unheard of in the tonal spectrum.

Shell Construction
All Ludwig Legacy Exotic drums feature an Exotic Veneer over 1/32” Maple Outer Ply with the standard Legacy Classic 1/8” American Poplar Core Ply, 1/16” Maple Inner Ply, 1/8” Solid Maple Reinforcement Rings shell combination underneath. The Legacy’s rounded bearing edge draws full, focused lows from inner and outer Maple plies and cuts unwanted overtones for superior tone and clarity.

Exotic Veneers

• Black Limba – The Black Limba veneer traces its origins to the heart of Africa. By far the most complex of the Legacy veneers, African Black Limba’s vertical grain is offset by its vibrant diagonal quilting pattern.
• Sumauma – The Sumauma veneer has its roots in the Amazonian rainforests of Brazil. A dark Amazon hardwood with a deep horizontal grain, Sumauma’s marbled textural figuring compliments its complex visual variation.
• Lacewood – The Lacewood veneer comes from the Australian Outback. A hardwood with orange and brown hues and a complex, shifting quilted nature. The heavy grain in Lacewood is likened to fish scales, in that it appears to “move” when light catches it.
