In the 1940s, an aluminum badge intense lissure ♪
At least 70 years have passed, so there are some small scratches, but there is no big damage, no hoop or rug cracks.. There are two places in the top hoop, which seems to be due to open rim shots, but there is a strong intensity unless it is a considerable power, so here will not cause any problems in the future.. Although it is a traditional Ludwig shell called reinforce in 3 prichels, it has a slightly different impression from the WFL since the 1950s.. The seams of the shell, how to attach reinforce, width, and lacquer painting inside are very polite jobs like a historic luxury furniture.. As expected, there is no opportunity to compare many snares of this year, but until the late 1930s, LUDWIG's wooden fabrics seemed to have only a single board shell, so this snare is. It seems that it was just when snares were just manufactured by Prychel.. In the era of veneer shell, the inner lacquer paint and seam treatments on the inside are being created like this snare, so as an impression, it may be close to such an era.. Until around 1945 during the war to the end of the war, metal parts such as rugs have a unique shape to save, and some are made of wood.. This snare seems to be a postwar model because the rug shape is the same Classic rug as the current wooden rug.. Sound ★★★★★
In the 1940s, until the middle stage, World War II. Even if it was in the second half, it would be a time after the war, so it was a snare born in the Monosgoy era.. As of 2023, at least 73 years have passed.. This sound, as well as the background of such an era. . . It's dangerous. . Definitely the sound that would have become the base of the sound of the Golden Age of Ludwig in the 60s and 70s, but the Odoroki is not so dead.. If anything, it is more energetic and more many overtones than the Ludwig snare since the 60's, and it has a powerful impression.. Since the 1960s, Mahogany and 3Ply of poplar have become the mainstream, but at this time it is 3Ply of maple and mahogany.. Of course, this is not the only difference, but it is an impression that the solid feeling of maple, the sound of the sound, and the feeling of power come out well.. The impression of this sound and the image of the era of being created do not match.. . It's so energetic, so there is a gap in a good way (sweat)
I feel the power that various thoughts were packed when the world would have been chaotic due to war.. Great snare ♪

General review ★★★★★
The Ludwig & Ludwig company founded by the Ludwig brothers in 1909 seems to be sold around 1930 to a company called Conn, the parent company of Leedy at the time.. Later, the Ludwig brand survived under Conn, but in the latter half of the 1930s, William.F.F. Radick and his son William.F.F. Radick II left the company, and our new drum brand. , Launch a WFL drum company. WFL is an abbreviation for (William.f.ludwig). Even if you are a founder, Conn has the right of the Ludwig brand at this time, so it will be restarted as WFL without being able to claim Ludwig.. After that, in the mid -1950s, WFL finally could buy the Ludwig rights and lead to it now.. Many people know the progress of the 60's and the 70's and Ludwig, but during the turbulent period to that point, the sound has already been completed.. I guess I would have burned the memories of many musicians because I was making instruments with this quality without losing the times..Click here for inquiries about the product * Products are also sold at the same time.
