Neat!
For the Ludwig addicts (like myself), it's handy to see all of the specs! What heads are you using on the toms? Vintage A's over ?
How do you like the throne?
Thanks again for the pics! This thread is always handy when I need a "fix".

Thanks, Ryan,
I use Remo Vintage As on the batter heads and Ludwig clear mediums on the reso heads on the 13/16, while the 22 has a Ludwig clear power collar batter and a Ludwig smooth vintage logo head on the reso (with a 4 inch port). This is the classic rock kit.
I just changed the heads on the 12 and 14 yesterday to Remo Fiberskyn Diplomats on the batter and Ambassador coated on the reso heads. the 20 kick has a Remo Powerstroke 3 coated batter head and a Ludwig vintage smooth white with power collar. I'm using this kit for accoustic jazz and I'm still trying to find the sound I like, hence the new heads on the TTs.
the snares:
LS401: Vintage A Ambassador
LS403: Ludwig medium coated
LM400: Vintage A Ambassador
LB442: Ludwig medium coated
all of the snares have the stock Ludwig snare side head
Finally, I have a bony ass and the throne is really comfortable. We practice every Sunday from 2-8 PM and I walk away feeling pretty good. However, I gave up a throne from the early 60s when I acquired this one, so anything would have been a great improvement.
