“A Little Better All the Time”

This month’s featured kit comes to us from Edward McCarthy of West Springfield, Massachusetts, who recently purchased this vintage 1970s Ludwig set. McCarthy explains that the drums, which were originally covered in a wine-red wrap, had seen better days. But with the fiftieth anniversary of the Beatles’ album Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band in 2017, the drummer was feeling inspired when he began refurbishing them.
