Ludwig Accent Drive Black Cortex 5-Piece Drum Kit + Hardware and Cymbals

Descrizione

Ludwig has been one of the most trusted and renowned drum makers for decades - they're also one of the oldest. While they certainly produce many 'high-end' kits for professional drummers, they haven't forgotten about where it all begins. As such, the Accent Series is fully focused on the beginner drummer and, rather than just offering a set of drum shells where you have to get the stands and cymbals and so on separately, Ludwig have been kind enough to compile a complete kit of five drum shells, two cymbals, a kick pedal, drum throne (also known as a stool), and all the stands and fittings you're going to need to set everything up. All you need to bring is your set of sticks and a little dedication.

The Ludwig Accent Drive

The core of this kit is the five drum shells. The largest is the bass drum, which is usually set up on its side and at the centre of the kit, and here measures 22-inches in diameter and 16-inches in depth. Since the bass drum is played with your feet, a kick pedal also comes included. Mounted on top of the bass drum is a set of two small toms which measure 10 by 8-inches and 12 by 8-inches. Standing on a set of legs and to one side of the bass drum, a 16 by 16-inch floor tom is also included and, if you're right handed, the floor tom is usually placed on your right - if you're left-handed, then you can simply move it over to the left. To finish, an all-important 14 by 6.5-inch snare drum is provided.

Hardware and Cymbals

To set up your kit, a complete pack of stands has been included that, in the drumming world, is usually referred to as your hardware, or hardware pack. Here, Ludwig have provided a snare drum stand, a kick pedal for the bass drum, two tom holders to mount the two toms to the top of the bass drum, as well as three all-important floor tom legs. An essential 14-inch hi-hat is also included alongside a 16-inch cymbal that can double as your crash and ride and, so you can securely set your cymbals up, you also get a pair of matching stands. To complete the picture, a stool (quite rightly referred to as a 'drum throne'), is also provided. This excellent starters pack comes with the kind of Ludwig-grade quality that's built to last decades, and be built upon as you progress.
