Chat_Capone Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 4K sounds pretty expensive for Corps-used battery equipment. battery percussion equipment is like a cup of coffee, it doesnt hold any value and only decreases the more it's used. Unless it's been completely overhauled, it will fall apart. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
08Hawkeye Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 Theyre only a year old... they sound and look good... drums are notoriously "passed down" to smaller corps or high school/colleges. They were taken care of, I can tell you that, but you're gonna want to be careful crankin the tenor heads. Good luck finding that amount of equipment for that price anywhere else. Hybrid Johnny, how big is your line anyway? If there are 5 or less snares you could even pull a multi section snare solo type thing... (Boston 03..? :)).

BradF Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 Just stumbled upon this thread now. The silver Ludwigs were sold a few weeks ago, so no longer available. I do have a different battery set for sale, if anyone's interested. Send me a pm if you would like details. Thanks, Brad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did I say it was a "Boston thing" ? -- first one that came to mind. and the effect worked pretty well. Copied the concept? didn't realize bluecoats had a patent on the idea. crap. guess write a letter and ask permission next time i use it for my h.s. kids...
