Today's drummers often get themselves into some tight situations. Whether it's a rehearsal, a studio class, or a small stage, the space designated for setting up the drum kit is sometimes very limited. Ludwig now offers the Classic Birch Gig-Lite Outfit, designed to easily transport and set up quickly in tight spaces.

The four-piece outfit includes a bass drum and toms that are half the size in depth, but sound as big as ever. Made in the USA, Gig-Lite features include double silver Keystone badges, half-size Classic Birch shells, mini lugs, modular pedal, Ludwig mounting system, coated drumheads and Accent folding spurs.

The outfit is made up of an 8"x20" bass, 6"x13" floor (hanging), 5"x10" tom, 3"x13" snare drum, and includes the 800 Series cymbal stands and Hi-Hat, and 600 Series snare stand. Gig-Lite is available in Silver Sparkle wrapped finish only, and can be ordered with or without stands.

Gig-Lite Outfit with Stands (Classic Birch) LR2604EC manufacturer's suggested retail price is $1,800.
