Ludwig Classic Maple Pro Beat 3-Piece Drum Shell Pack - Black Oyster

Anchored in one of Ludwig’s boldest and most commanding configurations, the Classic Maple Pro Beat 3-piece shell pack delivers scale, depth and authority without sacrificing musical control. Crafted in the United States, this powerful setup features a 24x14" bass drum, 13x9" rack tom and 16x16" floor tom, offering generous dimensions for drummers who want room to shape tone and dynamics. Each shell is constructed from 7-ply maple formed to a 6 mm thickness and finished with clean 45-degree bearing edges, allowing notes to respond quickly and develop naturally. Built using Ludwig’s RFST Radio Frequency Shell Technology molding process, the shells cure evenly for increased stability and consistency, resulting in a large-format Classic Maple kit that feels expansive, expressive and unmistakably Ludwig.

Finish Options That Balance Visual Character and Musical Focus

The Classic Maple Pro Beat shell pack is offered in a range of Ludwig finishes, including Hybrid Sparkle variants, allowing players to choose a visual identity that complements their setup without overshadowing the sound. Whether subtle or bold, each finish is applied with durability in mind and designed to age gracefully through rehearsals, sessions and live performance. The look feels intentional and musical, reinforcing the Pro Beat’s presence while keeping attention on the shells and the player behind them.

Classic Maple Shells With Broad Projection and Familiar Response

The Pro Beat shell pack is built around Ludwig’s trusted Classic Maple construction, prized for its even response and musical consistency. Seven plies of maple formed to a 6 mm thickness deliver a wide, open voice with smooth sustain, while precision 45-degree bearing edges help notes speak clearly across a broad tuning range. Steel hardware, triple-flange hoops and branded heads complete a setup that feels solid and familiar under the sticks, supporting everything from controlled studio work to higher-energy performance.
