Also excited to welcome a brand new, used Ludwig Club Date SE kit! - 20x14 kick, 12x8 rack, 14x14 floor, 14x6 snare - silver sparkle finish with the snare being ruby red sparkle. Great reissue drums from the 60s club date using cherry/gumwood and the snare has re-rings. This will be the main kit for Red Coyote Band!
