Players who miss the focused tone and iconic looks of Ludwig drumheads of the 1970s and '80s will find much to love about the modern Ludwig Silver Dot series. Ludwig partnered with Remo to bring their classic sonics and visuals to a whole new level of precision playability. New features include high-tension Crimplock hoops for enhanced seating and intonation, as well as better durability across the board.
The Ludwig Silver Dot bass drum batter head starts as a single ply of 10-mil clear film to strike an ideal balance of attack, sustain, and durability, and adds to it a Remo Powerstroke muffling ring to meet modern standards of sound. The iconic Silver Dot center — sourced and sized the same as it was in the '70s — is great at reducing overtones and adding strength to the impact point, all without killing the natural tone of your kick. And with their classic looks, yesterday's, today's, and tomorrow's players can all find fresh inspiration in Ludwig Silver Dot bass drumheads.
