Ludwig Pinnacle 5-Piece Drum Set comes with shells, cymbals, hardware and sticks; Everything you need to play in one box! Shells made from Basswood, the Pinnacle is an excellent drum set for anyone looking for a smooth even sound from its high top-end of its chiming cymbals, to the low-bottom of the Kick. Ready to play right out of the box, this kit comes with an 8-ply bass drum, snare and 3 (6-ply) toms. Not to mention the fact that you get double braced stands, a kick pedal, drum throne, cymbals and even sticks to bang out your beat.

Getting your first drum kit can be hassle. Maybe that’s why the Ludwig Pinnacle line has become a best-seller 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 Pinnacle five-piece. The price you see nets you a full kit in the truest sense of the word, right down to a pair of sticks, and it’s a kit you’ll be proud to play on for years to come.

What set Rock ‘N 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–Trés 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 Five-Piece Drum Kit.

Big Tone at an Affordable Price
The 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 and kick shell sizes make the Pinnacle Five-Piece well-suited to many different styles of music.

They’re Not “Extras,” They’re 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 Pinnacle Five-Piece set 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! What, are you going to kick the bass drum with your foot? The Ludwig Pinnacle ships with a smooth, chain-operated pedal for lightning-fast beats. Read more »
