The Ludwig Classic Maple 3-piece fab shell pack is Ludwig's proprietary RFST construction that bonds the seven plies of North American hard rock maple in a process that creates even resonance across the shells. The result is the versatile, balanced tone maple is prized for, consistently tuned and with long sustain. The exotic white abalone finish, a Ludwig first, elevates the kit to new aesthetic heights.

Resonant 7-Ply Maple Shells With Gorgeous White Abalone Finish

The 7 plies of maple that form the shells are carefully arranged and bonded with a specialized RFST process. The center ply runs horizontally, bookended by vertical outer plies that unify the shell, allowing even curing for consistent tonality. The striking white abalone wrap gives the Classic Maple shells an elegant new look, sure to catch eyes onstage. The rich, swirling patterns sparkle under the lights, projecting your rhythms on a sea of pearly tones.

Proprietary RFST Construction for Even Tonality and Tuning

Ludwig's proprietary Radio Frequency Shell Technology uses specialized techniques to bond the plies evenly across each shell's surface. The process cures the wood uniformly, preventing dead spots or uneven resonance. You'll appreciate the resulting musical tonality and wide tuning range when you sit at the kit to play. The Classic Maple's precision manufacturing supports your creativity.

Classic Sizes, Including a Kick, Floor Tom and Rack Tom

This Fab shell pack includes tom and kick sizes that form the backbone of countless studio sessions and live shows. The 16x16" floor tom projects authority and low-end power. The 13x9" rack tom cuts through the mix with definition and presence. Anchoring them, the 22x14" kick provides deep, booming bass tones. The 2.3 mm triple-flange hoops add mass for a muscular attack, while Ludwig's keystone badges on each drum anchor the kit in tradition. Timeless sizes, unlimited possibilities—the Ludwig Classic Maple Fab brings it all together.

Atlas Suspension Mounts and Triad Floor Tom Brackets for Stability

Rack toms mount securely to Ludwig's Atlas suspension mounts and 12 mm arms, isolating them from extraneous resonance. Floor toms sit solidly on Ludwig's Triad mounting system, with 12 mm legs that stand up to your most intense performances. You can count on the hardware and mounts to hold steady, letting the drums ring true.
