Ludwig WFL Buddy Rich wmp; 14 x 5.5 African Mahog snare

Ludwig WFL Super Classic 3ply snares are known for their warm, rich tone.

This is a Ludwig Buddy Rich Super Classic, highly sought after by collectors and players.

 

50s 3ply African Mahog/Pop/Mahog with Maple re ring snares are well known as some of the best sounding vintage wood shell snares Ludwig made.

Ringo’s Jazz festival on Beatle records has a similar shell.

This Buddy Rich model offers many different sounds depending on tuning.

Original Buddy Rich style snare mech has been replaced with a slightly newer Ludwig snare mech in great working condition.

Few extra small holes in the shell have been professionally repaired by Bob Reid, the master of these jobs and it now looks more like it’s stunning original self again.

 

Damper is not the original model as it was common for these vintage parts to wear out over time.

Still has the two original Ludwig brass hoops.

White marine pearl is one of the most popular wraps for vintage Ludwigs.

And this wrap is only slightly yellowing but still in great condition.

Tuned carefully, this gem has the most powerful, mind-blowing vintage sound.

 

 

Used and in excellent condition for its age. [SD 0934]

Price is just $795.

If in original condition, value of this snare drum would be much higher.

This price is firm.
