Breakbeats


Breakbeats Series
"I wanted to build a device that was apartment-friendly and compact for the street musician; but also something that was quality-sounding. A gritty, raw, 'break-able' kit for gigging in clubs that you can fit in a cab. Breakbeats by Questlove does it all."

- Ahmir "Questlove" Thompson (The Roots)

Breakbeats was designed with the city in mind. Positioned on a riser for optimum reach, its compact 14x16" bass drum, 7x10" tom, and 13x13" floor tom creates a set-up for sculpting grooves in tight spaces. It features Remo Pinstripe heads for pro-level tones, and comes with a multi-purpose bags for easy transport, and drum muting. 

Break It Down
The tonal center of Breakbeats is a 5x14" matching wood snare drum. Create beats on the fly and make your voice heard at gigs, on the street, or in rehearsal.

Dial It In
Fitted with Remo heads, Breakbeats' 7-ply hardwood shells play like a full-sized kit; fusing low-end kick punch with focused tom and snare midrange.

Pack It Up
Packable, stackable, and portable, Breakbeats' compact size and included storage bags make it ideal for the drummer on the move. Play it wide open or instantly change volume and tone by draping each bag over each drum.

Shell
7-ply hardwood. Preferred by professionals for its tonal versatility.

Bearing Edge
Each drum's bearing edge is cut to a 45-degree angle within 1/16" from the outside edge. This sharp 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.

Its high sensitivity, wide dynamic tuning range, and sharp attack make it the ideal choice for live performance. Yet Classic Maple's 7-ply shell is crafted to respond to the player and environment quickly, making it adaptable to any playing style or preference.

Each drum's bearing edge is cut to a 45-degree angle within 1/16" from the outside edge. This sharp 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.

RFST Molding
Classic Maple's standard 7-ply, 6mm shell is formulated for optimum resonance and tonality. Its center three-ply core panel (laminated in a horizontal/vertical/horizontal grain bond to a 2.4mm thickness,) is inserted between inner and outer two-ply panels through our proprietary RFST molding process.

To increase stability through out the drum, all Ludwig USA shells are produced using Radio Frequency Shell Technology. Using a process involving our original bladder molds, 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. This process is truly a principal ingredient in creating the "Ludwig Sound" in every shell we make.

Classic Oak - FAB 3PC Shell Pak - ON ORDER


Classic Oak Series
Old-World craftsmanship builds today’s sound!
Classic Oak is built on the original Ludwig, cross-over, Oak shell formula that has captivated professionals for the last decade. Our exclusive design blends Oak and Maple to produce a rich tone that is balanced, focused, and loud. With exciting new finishes and more configuration options, Classic Oak joins its counterpart, Classic Maple, as a powerful, dynamic, professional drum set.

INTRODUCING LUDWIG’S NEW CLASSIC OAK SERIES.
The shell consists of a 5-ply construction; 3-ply North American Maple core with inner and outer plies of American Red Oak. The shells are 6.5mm thick with dual 45-degree bearing edges. This cross-over shell blends an aggressive attack along with dark tones and quick even decay.

These drums are proudly made in Monroe, NC USA.

Shells
5-ply, 6.5mm cross-over shell: 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 add's more control and low-end to the Oak to produce a more well-rounded tone as opposed to a straight Oak shell.

Bearing Edges
Dual 45-degree bearing edge for added focus, attach, and tuning control. A 3-ply maple core is used at this shell's core for the apex of the bearing edge for even head to edge contact. The oak inner/outer plies maximize attack and stick definition for a sound with dark presence and sculpted definition.
