Getting your first drum kit can be hassle. Maybe that's why the Ludwig Pinnacle drum kit line has become a bestseller so quickly: it comes complete with everything you need to start playing, right away. Most drums are sold as just shells, meaning no cymbals, no kick pedal, no drum throne, no hardware...you're still gonna need to plunk down a couple hundred bucks for a complete set. Not so with the Ludwig Pinnacle drum kit five-piece. The price you see nets you a full drum kit in the truest sense of the word, right down to a pair of sticks, and it's a drum kit you'll be proud to play on for years to come.

What set rock and roll apart from the start was the aggressive rhythm, and that rhythm was driven by the drummer. More often and not in those early days, the drummer's kit bore the Ludwig name: legends like Ringo Starr and John Bonham changed the world with Ludwig drums, and today's greatest players--Tre Cool from Green Day, Jason McGerr from Death Cab For Cutie, and Bonham's son Jason--continue to do the same. Now you can start you own musical revolution with a Ludwig Pinnacle Drum Kit, Five-Piece.

Big Tone at an Affordable Price

The Ludwig Pinnacle line is an affordable one, but these drums don't sacrifice on tone. Crafted from basswood, the Pinnacle shells are punchy, musical, and loud. The three tom-toms feature six-ply construction for durability and sonic impact, and the eight-ply, 22"x18" bass drum is like an indestructible cannon. The particular selection of tom… read more and kick shell sizes make the Ludwig Pinnacle drum kit well-suited to many different styles of music.

Not Extras; Essentials

Ever seen a drummer playing without cymbals or a kick pedal? Not likely. Things like cymbal stands and a drum throne shouldn't be considered accessories--they're integral to the instrument. The Ludwig Pinnacle drum kit is truly a drum "kit," giving you every last tool you need to start playing the music you love right out of the box, including hi-hat, and crash ride cymbals. You also get high-quality, adjustable stands to mount those cymbals, as well as a throne to sit on and sticks to bash everything with. And a kick pedal. The Ludwig Pinnacle ships with a smooth, chain-operated pedal for lightning-fast beats.

So go ahead, indulge in your dreams of rock-stardom... the Ludwig Pinnacle (5-Piece) makes starting your legendary journey easier than ever. read less
