The Legacy Mahogany Jazzette shell pack from Ludwig delivers the drum tone you’ve been hearing for decades on classic recordings from jazz to rock. The key to Legacy's classic tone begins with a cross-laminated American poplar center ply to lend focus to the warm rich low-end "woody" tones of inner/outer mahogany plies, specifically 1/16" mahogany outer ply, 1/8" poplar core ply, 1/16" mahogany inner ply with 1/4" solid maple reinforcement rings. This unique shell combination is further stabilized by a specially rounded bearing edge with 1/4" solid maple reinforcement rings.
