Offered for sale is an exceptionally rare Ludwig Patrick Carney Salesman Sample / Trade Show kit in the iconic multi-color sparkle stripe finish.
This is not a standard production configuration. The set was originally produced as a factory representative/sample kit and features matching shells throughout, including the matching snare drum. The finish is one of Ludwig's most recognizable modern limited-production finishes and was associated with Patrick Carney of The Black Keys.
All drums retain matching Ludwig Keystone badges and are finished in the striking multi-color sparkle wrap. The kit presents beautifully and is an incredible display piece while remaining fully playable.

Whether you're a Ludwig collector, Black Keys fan, or simply looking for a standout USA-made kit, this is a rare opportunity to acquire a unique piece of Ludwig history.
