Ludwig Drums is a US manufacturer of percussion instruments, established in 1909 by William F. amp; Theobald Ludwig, sons of a German immigrant to the United States. William Jr. had been a professional drummer, playing with circuses and touring vaudeville shows, he and his brother, Theobald, opened a drum shop in Chicago; they called it Ludwig amp; Ludwig. The brand achieved significant popularity in the 1960s due to the endorsement of Beatles drummer Ringo Starr.
The Ludwig Legacy Mahogany series revives the shell that formed the foundation of Ludwig drums for more than five decades. The foundation of Legacy's timeless sound lies in its cross-laminated American Poplar center ply, which enhances the warm, rich low-end "woody" tones produced by the inner and outer Mahogany plies. This distinctive shell configuration is further reinforced by a specially rounded bearing edge, complemented by 1/4" solid maple reinforcement rings. In 1923, Ludwig introduced their innovative 3-ply shell formula, which was praised for being crafted "......in accordance with the recognised correct principles used in the manufacture of airplanes." This iconic design developed into a distinctive sound that resonated with countless drummers over the years.
