"The WFLIII
Drums kit is close to euphoric sounding to me," says
Bobby "T." "They are the best drums I've ever played, and I've been doing this for five decades."
"What I love about WFLIII
Drums is that every time I hit the drum, it sounds like the way I think a drum is supposed to sound," adds Williamson. "It's just really warm, there's great stick attack, I don't have to work really hard to tune the toms to sound the way I want them to. There's an even symmetry around the bearing edge. Every time we've set a kit up anywhere, it's always been an improvement over what was there."
Founding WFLIII
Drums with a similar, uncompromising vision shared by his father and grandfather, Ludwig III ("Bill III") says, "We don't just make drums and percussion tools, we craft them—and make every customer feel special. I want WFLIII
Drums to be forward thinking and innovative. That's exactly the way my grandfather and dad would want it."
Continuing to innovate, and personally sharing his new WFLIII
Drums finishes and lug hardware during the recent NAMM event in Los Angeles, Ludwig III will travel to Vancouver, BC Feb 20-24 for the inaugural Drumeo Festival followed by a hometown appearance May 16-17 at the
Chicago Drum Show, one of the largest and longest-running drum exhibitions in the world. Kofi Baker, son of the late
Cream drummer Ginger Baker, will be the featured clinician at WFLIII Drums'
Chicago Drum Show booth.
"I worked with Ginger for decades, and now working with his son is really special," says Ludwig III.
"During the
Chicago Drum Show, we also plan to do an instore event with our local dealer, Mike's Drum Shop in Villa Park. We might even reveal a new drum finish," he teases.
