Hello all. I play in an originals band called October Sons. Although I gig on a full kit, we do occasional acoustic shows like Borders Bookstore. I have a 1968 Ludwig cocktail drum in black diamond pearl that I use. I love it. It is all original and I was able to put some small hi-hats on it as well as a splash cymbal.(Without any mods to the drum!) I actually purchased it on e-bay about a year and a half ago and it has worked out great. If anyone wants to see it, it is at <!--EZCODE AUTOLINK START--><a href="http://www.octobersons.com.">www.octobersons.com.</a><!--EZCODE AUTOLINK END--> Look under my name(Kurt Ekstrom), and there is a picture of me playing it. The greatest thing about it is that it is stamped with the 1968 date inside, as well as the serial number, which matches the keystone badge. Pretty cool.<br>
