Ludwig Classic Oak 24" PRO BEAT 4-Piece Shell Pack - Black Sparkle
The Ludwig Classic Oak Shell Pack 24 Pro Beat - Black Sparkle is built on the original Ludwig, cross-over, Oak shell formula that has captivated professionals for the last decade. Ludwig's exclusive design blends Oak and Maple to produce a rich tone that is balanced, focused, and loud. Blending aggressive attack and dark tones with quick even decay, the Classic series Oak is ideal for settings where volume, attack, and control are of the utmost priority.
The Classic Oak series' 5-ply, 6.5mm cross-over shell features a 3-ply Maple core with American Red Oak inner and outer plies. This is a proprietary Ludwig design not traditional to most Oak builds. The Maple adds more control and low-end to the Oak to produce a more well-rounded tone as opposed to a straight Oak shell. To increase stability throughout the drum, all Ludwig USA shells are produced using Radio Frequency Shell Technology. Using a process involving Ludwig's historic bladder molds that date back to the late 1960's, R.F.S.T.'s unique bonding system, combined with a specialized, time-tested adhesive, cures each shell evenly over the entire surface of the shell. Each drum's bearing edge is cut to a 45-degree angle within 1/16 from the outside edge. This profile is critical for a wide tuning range, and maximum sustain. The edge is hand-sanded to the craftsman's touch to assure a smooth, even, flat surface for easy head seating; the final touch to complete the unmistakable Ludwig Sound.
