Vintage Ludwig Drums
Ludwig Blue Note
The Down Beat kit was a slim and compact version of the Super Classic kit offered for pro drummers looking for a less bulky set up while providing a tighter punchy sound. The punchy, brighter, high tensioned tones made it a favorite for jazz drummers. It offered a more focused sound on articulation with quick attach, while holding the emphasis on low end. A well balanced and deserving drum kit to many band settings. The Down Beat kits were available as a four piece configuration made of 3-ply shells with a matching Down Beat snare.
