Click image for closeup

Taking the bright, cutting tone of birch and fusing it with the warmer qualities of maple, Ludwig's Epic Series drums produce a wet, powerful sound that is at home in high-volume situations. Epic's new ultra-thin 6-ply shell vibrates at a more even rate, sculpting a rich, vibrant balance between subtlety and sonic punishment.

Available in five different configurations, four high-gloss lacquer finishes, and accented by the new Classic Keystone Lug, 2.5mm snare hoops (2mm rims on toms,) and Vintage Bronze hardware, the Epic Series has truly found a home in the Ludwig Legacy. "The sound of the birch/maple/birch shell on these drums is so full and warm it is astounding!" said Kevin Packard, Director of Marketing, Combo Percussion. "The Ludwig team put a lot of time and research into this shell and the unique qualities of the Epic Series, and the added value of the 6th free drum with all 5-pc. shell packs is a pretty amazing value!" 6/4/5 Shell Pack MSRP: $1270.00 For more information, visit their web site at http://www.ludwig-drums.com/.
