My Project

We were extremely fortunate to receive a donation of a 1951 Ludwig and Leedy Drum Set from a community member. This Drum Set is fantastic and gets used every single day. Due to that much use, certain parts are starting to show their age and need to be replaced.

The hoops on the bass drum are cracked and need to be replaced after 70+ years of use - I'd say they've done their job pretty well.

We are also in need of an upgraded Hi-Hat stand to replace the one currently in use and held together with four hose clamps.
