CDE Exclusive LUDWIG "CHICAGO SERIES" KITS
NEW from Ludwig: CDE Exclusive Ludwig Classic Maple “Chicago Series” Drum Kits
Featuring the brand new, never-before-seen Bamboo Strata finish!


Something wicked this way comes, and it’s a Chicago Drum Exchange first. Meet our newly-developed CDE Exclusive “Chicago Series,” Ludwig Classic Maple drum kits with all the Classic Maple specs and configurations you know and love, and one distinctive CDE twist. In its worldwide debut, our brand new Bamboo Strata finish.
This is the first time Bamboo Strata has appeared on any drum, by any manufacturer, and we couldn’t be more proud. This rare, custom finish is as exclusive as it gets, so it’s fitting that you can only get it here as part of our ongoing CDE/CME Exclusive series.
Our CDE Exclusive Ludwig Classic Maple “Chicago Series” Bamboo Strata kits will be available in four of Ludwig’s most popular configurations: Fab (13/16/22), Downbeat (12/14/20), Probeat (13/16/24), and the increasingly popular Jazzette (12/14/18). For a Chicago Drum Exchange Exclusive in the truest sense of the word, order your Ludwig Classic Maple “Chicago Series” Bamboo Strata kit today.

Configurations available: Fab (13/16/22), Downbeat (12/14/20), Probeat (13/16/24), and the increasingly popular Jazzette (12/14/18).
