Drums designed with the city in mind. With a setup that's compact enough for an apartment, cab and a coffee house, Breakbeats by Ludwig are an ideal companion for the gigging, urban percussionist. Co-created by a master of modern groove, Ahmir "Questlove" Thompson, this 4-piece kit was designed to be "break-able" for a gritty, raw downbeat.
Positioned on an included lift for optimum reach, Breakbeat's 16 x 14" bass drum, 13 x 13" floor tom, and 10 x 7" tom not only fit into tight places, but also break down quickly and easily. The driving force behind this shell pack is a 14 x 5" matching wood snare drum. The combination of this 16" kick and 14" snare produces the punchy, dry and "breakable" backbeat that is Questlove's signature.
The Ludwig Questlove drum is made up of 4 7-ply mahogany and poplar shells with hand-finished rounded arrow edges, with the following sizes: 14x16 "bass drum, 7x10" tom, 13x13 "floor tom, 5x14" snare drum. Tom tube stand on bass drum with ball “L” and adapter to raise the bass drum.
