A Neu Spin on an American Classic
NeuSonic shell packs draw on more than 100 years of Ludwig’s drum-making expertise. The 7-ply maple-on-cherry shells (four plies of maple and three plies of cherry) blend classic Ludwig warmth and visuals — including Mini Elite lugs and Keystone badges — with modern power and cut. Yet, despite its heritage build quality, the American-made NeuSonic is reasonably priced. From bop to rock and from classic to contemporary styles, drummers everywhere are finding a new groove with Ludwig NeuSonic shell packs from Sweetwater.

Handbuilt with RFST in Monroe, NC
The same traditions that have gone into Ludwig drums since 1909 continue to shape the NeuSonic series. Shells are formed by skilled hands using RFST molding at Ludwig’s facility in North Carolina, USA, and are tested to stand up to real-world gigging conditions. RFST is a technology that uses radio frequencies to increase drum stability, and is the primary driver behind the coveted sound of Ludwig drums.
7-ply maple/cherry shells
A 4-ply exterior of punchy, broadband maple — an integral part of the Ludwig recipe — meets a 3-ply inner core of crisp cherry wood in the NeuSonic shell pack. This adds modern projection and presence to the timeless Ludwig tone for far-reaching sonic diversity.
