Overhauled in our shop. There are some scratches, but it is very beautiful and good!
All the original Super Conditions except for the head and snappy ♪
From around 1960 to 63, it will be a model called Bras Shelled Super Ladick, but the built -in mute is a round knob or a baseball bat type.
There are minor changes, such as the switches from the WFL era, and the type after becoming a Ludwig brand.. Comprehensively, it's probably the 1960 type..

Sound ★★★★★

Super Ludwig, which features a boo -steaded character that has been further improved by the eternal classic snare, Ludwig 400, all -round response.. It's a really super sound ♪

General review ★★★ ☆☆

Speaking of Ludwig 400, it is a snare that has the most standard sound in the world and is an index to judge all snares in our shop.. From the late 1950s to the early 1960s when the 400 first appeared in the world, shells and hoops were made of brass.. Strictly speaking, the design and weight of the rugs at this time are different from the subsequent models, and the catalog is named Super Ludwig No.400.. After that, in the 1960s, the price of brass materials was made as alternative materials, so the catalog around 1964 was a Supraphonic (Supraphonic) No.400, which was made of a new aluminum -based shell. The name has been changed. It is interesting that the material number remains as it is even if the material changes, but it is not an exaggeration to say that it also means prototype and mass -produced type.. By the way, the mass production system of Ludwig seems to have changed completely from the day after the Beatles first appeared at the Ed Sullivan Show in 1964, but it was a normal operation until then, but on this day, three shifts a day. It seems that the system started 24 hours a day. So, it may be that the proportion of the Supraphonic type was mass -produced compared to the prototype.. So, even today, King of Snare, the genuine roots of Ludwig 400, Super Ladick in the 1960s pre -serial period ♪
