Shell Guide
Other special features like badges, shell plys and the interior finish all help in giving you a date range of your drums manufacture. Yes they are very good Classic Maple, not that old at all. Those particular spurs have only been in use for a few years. Did you get it? Is that new and is it all toms or just the mounted? Can't recall seeing it before, but that could be me not paying close enough attention.

One badge will have serial numbers, and the other is plain. My Red Sparkle CM's has 2 on the toms, and several toms before, and after '07 have 2 badges.
It was to put the bracket section of a RIMS mount between the badges. That way, no matter what size was used, a badge was facing out. I got an 8x12, and a 13x15 ft late last year in Sable Black. I can't recall if they have 2 badges, but I'm playing that kit tonight, so I'll look.

Have fun with the kit rdon!! My new red sparkles only have one badge.
The 9x13" RS tom from '07 has 2 badges. Ludwig will also apply a finish a customer sends to them, if someone wanted a finish they don't offer. I'd say somewhere between and is a good bet.
Enjoy, looks like a cool kit!! Originally Posted by serzh Ludwig used 2 badges on toms for quite a while.
