Ludwig 5x14" 1920’s All-Metal 2-Piece Nickel over Brass Snare Drum - Used by Chad Cromwell
Steve’s notes: THIS IS TRULY MUSIC HISTORY! The heavy 20s era Ludwig 2 pc brass shell is routinely referred to as ”the hit maker” by studio drummers everywhere, due to the incredible sound from that heavy brass shell. And, this drum is truly a “hit maker”: Chad Cromwell, noted LA and Nashville studio great, owned this drum and used it on 100s of recordings. From Chad, here are just a few examples of recordings with this drum:
Dave Stewart (Eurythmics): The Blackbird Diaries
Parker McCollum: Burn It Down
Joss Stone: LP 1 and Never Forget My Love
Vince Gill: Guitar Slinger and These Days
Also Elle King, Dierks Bentley, and “loads more I can’t even remember”.
The drum is set up exactly as Chad used it. So, the typical single flange rims with clips were replaced with the die cast rims shown. The snare wires were placed with wide 42 standard. We are leaving the drum set up exactly as Chad used it on all of his many recordings. There’s some serious “mojo” with this one!
