Nice looking kit you have there. One of DW's members (Bo) will love your Black Dot heads. Expect to hear from him. :)
 
Lovely! Dark, solid colors are always elegant and timeless.

Congrats! I bet they sound fantastic as well as look it.
 
I was gonna ask about the edges also. I bought some lower line Ludwigs around 82. SL series. I think they turned into the Rocker line later on. They were poplar with rounded edges. Or course the were black. They sounded full and deep, lots of tone. I can only imagine how good your top of the line Ludwigs sound. They sure look great. Congrats, very nice kit.
