Ludwig Speed Flayer Chain Drive L204SF Kick Drum Pedal

Ludwig’s Flagship Bass Drum Pedal

The top-of-the-line Ludwig Speed Flyer chain-driven single bass drum pedal takes its visual cues from classic Ludwig designs and ups the ante with a slew of modern, high-performance features. The Speed Flyer’s beater retains the traditional sizing, but it has an improved design and increased weight for a more focused strike. Bushings have been upgraded to smooth action bearings, delivering a more responsive feel. A redesigned toe clamp minimizes hoop damage and provides a secure and reliable grip. Additionally, the Speed Flyer has a stronger baseboard than previous Ludwig kick pedals, new ergonomic wing bolts, and a very convenient attached drum key. 

The Ludwig legacy
Since 1909, Ludwig drums have had one of the proudest legacies in percussion and are a favorite of Sweetwater drummers for their warm, punchy sound. The world has heard them under the sticks of Cream’s Ginger Baker, keeping the pulse behind Queen at Live Aid, and laying down the monstrous beat of Led Zeppelin’s “When the Levee Breaks.” But their biggest break came when Ringo Starr proudly played them on The Ed Sullivan Show in 1964, making Ludwig a household name for aspiring and superstar drummers alike.
