Get Them Started on Their Drumming Quest
The benefits of early music education are vast, and drumming is particularly effective for developing childhood confidence, creativity, and coordination. That’s why Sweetwater drummers and educators at our Academy of Music & Technology are so excited about the Ludwig Questlove Pocket Kit drum sets. Made in collaboration with a true drumming legend, Ahmir “Questlove” Thompson, the Ludwig Questlove Pocket Kit drum set is an all-in-one solution specifically sized for any fledgling timekeeper aged four to ten. Every piece a beginning beatmaker needs to get started is included: bass drum, tom, floor tom, snare drum, cymbals, stands, kick drum pedal, drum throne, a drum key for setting up and tuning, and even a pair of drumsticks. What’s more, each Questlove Pocket Kit drum set also comes with free introductory lessons so they can start drumming immediately after unboxing and setting up. And thanks to that timeless Ludwig build and sound quality, they’re going to want to play this fantastic-sounding kit every chance they get!

Questlove: on a relentless quest for groove
You've heard him with The Roots and seen him on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, but the Ludwig Questlove Pocket Kit drum set lets your young drummer truly channel the percussive spirit of Ahmir "Questlove" Thompson. An icon behind the kit, Quest is also a music producer, a university professor, an actor, and a celebrated author. Despite his multi-hyphenate status and his ever-growing abundance of accolades, Quest has never forgotten where he came from, and that's really what the Ludwig Questlove Pocket Kit drum set represents: a fantastic gateway that will inspire the next generation of drummers and introduce them to the wonderful world of music.


The Ludwig legacy
With a proud legacy that dates back to 1909, Ludwig drums are a favorite among Sweetwater drummers for their warm, punchy sound. The world has heard them in front of Cream’s Ginger Baker, keeping the pulse behind Queen at Live Aid, and laying down the monstrous sound of Led Zeppelin’s “When the Levee Breaks.” But the company’s biggest break came when Ringo Starr proudly played them on The Ed Sullivan Show in 1964. Ludwig drums of today continue to carry this impressive legacy forward.
