First Wave of Releases
Vintage Pink Oyster
Arguably one of the rarest Ludwig finishes makes a triumphant return! Originally seen in production as early as 1959 and as late as 1963, Pink Oyster Pearl captured a dynamic aesthetic that would make it one of drum’s most sought-after colors in the collector circuit. Its extremely limited nature turned this finish into a cult classic that demands some of the biggest resale values in vintage drums.
Like all other Vintage Oyster finishes from Ludwig, these are authentically produced by a hand blending process of material to recreate this illustrious look. No reproduction printed material here. Only the highest quality of handcrafted acetate film! Ludwig’s reissue pays respect to the craft of age-old material production and brings back one of Ludwig’s most-in-demand finishes.
Available on all Legacy and Classic Series Drums!

Pro Series Drum Thrones
