    214. Cons. Drum sizes too small and short. Should be 10x7. 12x9. 13x10. 14x14. 16x16, and 18x18 The 8 and 10 aren't much more than glorified bongos.

      @@musicessences that’s awesome you totally should! I’m new to all this and was trying to buy a drum set, this was a huge help. I ended up getting a mapex 5p set redwood. I really wish I could find help with “tuning”. After building it all it sounds….not great lol. Staying positive and I just keep trying lol, I figure it out eventually.

    Ringo got no monetary benefit from all the Ludwig sales. He could have learnt a lot from Buddy Rich, regarding endorsements…

    @jeffmold9058 Місяць тому

    So, if there was no licensing agreement then why did Ivor Arbiter, the owner of the shop where Ringo bought his first Ludwig kit, get to redesign the Beatles logo emphasizing the word Beat with the drop 'T'?

    Tempting-more research needed before parting with cash. Snare and kick sound great…tom sound is a preference thing…both rather “boingy”…..

    It passes from generation to generation. I'm playing a Ludwig kit because I saw the guy from Brontide playing one in their "Sans Souci" session. Although, mine is one of those Taiwanese built Centennial Moto kits with the 24" kick, 16" / 18" floor toms, 13" rack tom that do not seem to want to stay in tune lolol
