Gear Sluts 4: Best Pro kits

So, you want premium, you want the best. You want something that stands out from the crowd and want just that little bit extra. You want the best. So here we are, the best kits currently on the market.

Third place goes to Ludwig Classic Maple. That famous ludwig sound, and the Bonham Sound. An amazing kit with the best quality maple and utmost care into its construction. Booming bass drums and defined toms. A sound that makes the ground shudder.

Second place goes to Kumu Drums. Thinnest shells in the world give a vintage open sound with enhanced definition and sound that just denies belief. Beautiful construction hand made in Finland.

First place.... the best kit in the world.... Ludwig Legacy. The sound that defined a generation, the sound you heard from 1930 until 1970. The sound of the Beatles and Buddy Rich. The last true vintage kit still on the market and the most sought after kit in the world, however your wallet will hate you forever.

Special Mention:
Make your own. Best shells on the market belong to Carrera Drums. Making your own kit to your own specifications is a great way to make the best of the best. You can choose exactly what you want, even cutting them down to the perfect sizes if you want some more specialized ones. It's also a LOT cheaper. It's what I did, and have never looked back since.

So there you go, the best of the best in the world. Good luck buying the best, any questions and please ask. Oli.
