Instead of resting on the famous Ludwig sound over and over again, the U.S. luxury manufacturer has decided to send a new sound scheme into the ring and expand its Ludwig identity by a spectrum: KEYSTONE X!
The classic Ludwig Maple layers for the Keystone X Series are coated with American Red Oak on the inside and outside. This special oak wood gives the boilers a kind of equalizer by focusing and above all articulating the sound. Furthermore, the special construction creates a voluminous, powerful sound with an extra portion of attack. For additional resonance, the 45° burrs in the middle provide a perfect fit for the percussion skin.
The Keystone X boilers are manufactured under the same strict quality standards as the Classic Maple and Legacy Ludwig . The result is a perfect balance between powerful volume and subtle articulation.
Conclusion: A fat sound that has one thing above all: Power!
Scope of supply: 22"x16" Bass Drum, 10"x7" + 12"x8" Tom Tom, 16"x16" Floor Tom
