Ludwig Keystone X 3 Piece Pro Beat Shell Pack with 24 in. Bass Drum Champagne Sparkle

Rather than merely revisiting the sound that made Ludwig famous, Keystone Series Drums carve a new niche in Ludwig's sonic identity. In fusing their Classic Maple shell core with American Red Oak, Keystone's "pre-EQ'd" tone sculpts focus and articulation for the drummer seeking volume, attack and power.

Keystone Series is made under the same strict quality and structural standards as all Classic Maple and Legacy drums. A perfect balance between high-volume cut and subtle articulation is achieved for the live drummer, putting a modern twist on a century of custom American drum making.

Keystone's 5-ply combination of a Classic Maple 3-ply core between inner and outer 1/16" plys of American Red Oak creates a thin, dense shell that speaks loudly with quick, even decay. To draw further resonance from this unique hybrid, the dual 45-degree bearing edge is pulled to the center of the shell to seat perfectly into the head.
