Here is a beautiful example of a late 1970's "Mach 5" floor tom tom in beautiful Psychedelic Red wrap and an unusual 18" x 16" size. This drum is in near mint condition with well preserved Psychedelic Red wrap that shows little or no fading. All colors are bright with no visible scratches or chips. The chrome plating is in perfect condition and all hardware is original to the drum including the high tension classic style lugs. The only non-original part of this drum is the top, Remo head. The resonant head is an original Ludwig Weather Master. The legs and leg mounts are original as are the rubber feet. The blue & olive badge has a serial number 1,5x,xxxx dating the drum in the mid to late 1970's. This is an unusual size with a rare wrap that will make a nice addition to any collection or vintage Ludwig Psychedelic Red outfit.
