I think it's Bullsh*t that anyone has to wait for more than a month for anything!
Ludwig is a big enough company with plenty of staff on hand to get those drums made/fixed and out to you in an expediant manor!!!!
Shame on them! I would go directly back to your drum shop and DEMAND my money back!
There are way to many other drum companies out there.... boutique and big production, that would do anything for their customer satisfaction rating!!
SCREW LUDWIG! go by your self a nice Spuan kit or a Brady.
I will GAURANTEE.....you will get treated properly.
Every single persons satisfaction directly effects the survival of their company,... and they know it!
Not to offend anyone I hope,... but I would feel the same about, Tama,Pearl,Yamaha,Preimere, DW, ect. anycompany that would snub me and not treat me like a paying customer!
Oh, and by the way, I'm willing to bet the next kit is subpar also.
Sorry to say that,....but I'm willing to bet.
I also think they are'nt doing anything at all about it,...sorry
