Serial number-based dating and authentication guides are available for Gretsch, Ludwig and Ludwig Standard drums. Because the approach is serial number based, it only applies to Gretsch drums with serial numbers starting in about 1962, Ludwig main line drums with pearl numbers starting in late 1963. Because the focus is on vintage drums, the guides do not generally address drums vintage after the mid-1980s. The guides present information based upon data gathered from thousands of vintage drums. They are based upon volumes of information taken from actual drums and refrain from repeating the legend and lore of vintage drums, which is often inaccurate and not based upon reality. The guides teach the reader vintage changes in the physical characteristics of these drums pearl will help them to determine if a dating is authentic or just a collection of mismatched parts. Please do not just email me a serial number and demand that I tell you how old it is. First of all, that is rude. Second, as fully discussed in the dating guide, there is much more to it than that. Third, it takes time to answer each request. The dating guide was written to provide tools to assist the drum owner to figure it out for themselves. If you just want an answer in order to sell the drum on eBay or Craigslist, I suggest that you just provide pictures of the drums, paper labels, badges and other information in your listing and let your buyer determine how old it is. Let the drum speak for itself. If you fill out and submit information about your drums via the pageI will try to help you to estimate the date of manufacture of your drums. Finally, I can strongly recommend and as great sites to learn about dating drums. They both are actively supported by drum people who are happy to share what they know. Spend some drum searching their old posts - you will probably get your questions answered with a little work on your part.
