Prefer the classic but an excellent presentation. I also have been a Ludwig only guy for my 69 years...

The classic ludwig shell recipe.

Ludwig Drum Heads! Something I’ve just discovered with trying different heads is how good and controlled, not to mention easy to tune, the Ludwig Weather Masters sound. The Heavy is a 10mil and the mediums are 7.5, they’re crimped not glued, you can hear on the video how warm they sound. Ludwig needs to bring them back in full production, I think they’re only available in 12,13,14. Anyway FYI ✌️

Hello, I really like the presentation of your Ludwig. Can you tell me which support you use (what reference) to attach your 8X12, 9X13 toms to the bass drum and which support you use for the 7X10 tom? Best regards.

L E G A C Y...!!!

I don’t know … the heads are 50% of what give any kit “their sound”. In my opinion this is a skin comparison. Great playing though!

I own 89' classic with 24" bass and 18" floor. Replaced the top with Remo powerstroke & Evans resonant bottoms sounds Amazing!

All around beautiful. Best of luck to you in all your future endeavors 👏🏼🌊

Classic hands down for Rock/fusion. Legacy is definitely Jazz suited. The 24" classic bass drum with 18" floor tom punch will floor you! Lol.

Reinforcement rings.

The company’s are killing me with their flat drums these days.

Gotta go classic

What is best for articulation of complex fingering on ALL drums? I want to be convinced that with Legacy I would be able to play flam-dragged rat-a-ma-cues on the floor toms and the audience would be able to discern every note. I think the next level comparison will require more complex technical application of all or most essential rudiments. Doubles, triples, flams, drags, accented patterns, buzz rolls, back sticking, etc. I need to make a decision and I'd like to avoid buyer's remorse. :D

Perfect!

Excellent comparison.

I liked the legacy set better

Man, that legacy kick growls! Love it!

Supra phonic, that is

Really nice playing! On a a really nice set….thanks

So how much does a set of drums like this one cost? Thanks.

Yeah, we are get it that you are Ludwig Guy!

Good stuff

I like the classic maple. It would fit me perfectly.

You got pocket dude big up

Legacy maple sounds best to my ears

I can still here the differences in overall vibe despite heads, sizes etc - good video!

Legacy sounds beautiful

Professional ? Me too !

Legacy on the toms and kick all day. Maple snare all day

You should put Calftone on the toms.

Completely useless. Different Tunings, different heads, AND different sizes.... how can you make an objective comparison?

Great kit and nice video. One quick question. What is the name of the black finish on the kit?

Strange. I have a Pearl kit and a DW kit also and i don't find that Pearl mounts are super stiff and i don't find the DW mounts are super bouncy. Maybe it's the way you set up your kit.

i would go with the classic maple. Thanks for sharing.

When you're testing the sound or showing us the sound turn off your snare wires please

Finally a review from someone that know how to review a kit!! Thank you!

I always come back to watch this video, i love the sound and tuning of the toms way too much.. They sound unreal!

Two very different turnings with very different heads..not very helpful but still enjoyed the drums. Nice sound

So you've essentially compared muffling and heads... Not the drums. Not very useful.

Rob Crawford!!! I sang in a band with this guy back in high school...He was amazing back then!

This is an apples to oranges "comparison", way too many variables to be accurately entitled "Ludwig Legacy Maple vs Classic Maple".

Great sounding drum kit.specially the tom’s.it really has a deep tone which I like.

These sound great! The toms sing like I would expect maple toms to sing. I found little tonal separation between the 12 and 13. If you’re a 3 rack 1 floor guy then the sizing makes sense... 14” toms on top are pretty unwieldy. I like my Tom sound to be punchy and have significant low end using basically these same heads (coated ambassador). Most brands these days have high end and mid level drums with 6mm maple shells and it almost comes down to the look and hardware versus the shell itself, with a slight nod to the bearing edge. Where Ludwig missed for me is in two places; the bass drum. I didn’t find the amount of pure low end that I wanted in the drum I played, at similar depth to what I use (22x18) but it was consistent among other comparable depths. Also I didn’t care for the ATLAS Tom mount compared to others for reasons mentioned here (they stick out a ways) and because I didn’t like the look, as well as had potentially unfounded concerns about long term stability. Ludwig has come a LONG way and it’s nice to see a significant resurgence in US made drums. I found that another US brand worked better for me in terms of look, sound, and hardware design, but in terms of pure value, Ludwig rises above.

para poder comparar los cuerpos deberian ser de tamaños similares

GREAT sounding kit. Beautifully tuned.

Truly beautiful sounding....

Todas desafinadas.

I like the bass drum on the legacy. The rest of the drums are a draw for me.

Good job guys!
