[@artistrankings6794]

personally i enjoyed the vintage sound

[@fenegal]

Vintage had a fuller tone with more sustain... Neusonic more compressed and punchier... Both have their qualities but I think the vintage edges this one

[@wotsin69]

The vintage had more depth, the sound was more thicker. I liked the vintage over the other kit

[@einarabelc5]

Moer

[@robertengstrand4314]

Perfectly tuned snare. Just the way John Robinson, Steve Gadd och Jeff Porcaro sounded around 1980. ♥️🙏

[@stefanobonaldo8723]

Absolutely vintage sound

[@Daniel-gy6ze]

Really love the vintage one. Ngl i really prefer the snare from the vintage compared to the other kit.

[@samuelharmoko250]

I don’t think the snare was vintage, but instead just his typically modern black beauty

[@TheRhettjohnson707]

That snare on the vintage kit 🤩

[@samuelharmoko250]

I don’t think the snare was vintage, but instead just his typically modern black beauty

[@RorRiiZzLE]

I like the overall sound of the Vintage better, but I wouldn’t mind adding a Neusonic high rack to the kit to really raise the tonality with minimal change or additional items.

[@MegaAhhhhhhh]

Incredible Ludwig the older they get the better they sound !!!! Love ‘em

[@mikefancy2466]

I dig the snare and bass of the vintage but toms of the neusonic, both sound pretty good though!

[@liammcevoy3212]

Exactly my thoughts

[@eliaslemus9505]

I third that ^^

[@samuelharmoko250]

I don’t think the snare is vintage but a modern black beauty

[@jamiethacker675]

there was something rattling on the new kit that was distracting

[@thee_real_kzone]

I like the vintage more than the neusonic but both are great

[@loratoad]

They both have a good sound. Nelson is have more punch, but I like the warmth of the Vintage.

[@mjm5081]

Prefer the subtlety and variations of #1. Happy Drumming!!!

[@asherbank]

More low end rumble on the vintage. Cleaner projection on the new ones. Some ppl like that dirty rumble, some ppl like it clean and crisp.

[@justincristinziano]

The snare on the vintage was tuned way better

[@thesecretplacemexico9562]

New snare, old toms

[@MalachiMusic1]

vintage because of that snare and kick

[@joaoparracho432]

Old is gold bro❤

[@arcticjet7154]

I liked vintage the most but I also liked the other one.

[@xr680r]

The Neusonic has a much more open and a little airy, richer sound but I like the dryness of the Vintage. The Neusonic has more room to become like the Vintage. Made me wonder what would happen if you switched heads and tuned those heads to what they were to see how much you would get the same tone. Thar would be super cool for us drum nerds.

[@rapha4088]

I prefer the old one sound😎

[@tobygilliland7257]

Both sound great

[@blankpool]

I like the Neurosonic but i think the microphone was leaning against the kick making a rattling/clicking sound. Good video nonetheless

[@theredmachine108]

You’re an amazing drummer, your Vintage kills the new kit.

[@timmydodd1978]

I like both, but you’re comparing apples and oranges. Different ply/wood type. Not to mention they don’t have the same heads and are tuned differently.

[@oulandos66]

More „compressed/ equalized“ tone on the Neusonic.

[@Hardy_and_James-DrumCo]

Vintage kit has a fuller sound.

[@TheQuestion31]

I prefer the modern kit but I think the vintage one would benefit from less muffling

[@isyaramabayu1669]

The vintage one.. the old wood make the sound great

[@Shawnwicck]

I don’t like Ludwig drums unless we’re talking snares so i have no dog in the fight.

[@acidtones777]

I can hear the differences but it’s pretty impressive that it’s the same basic character between the two

[@VETTE_Drummer]

Vintage has my vote

[@NizarilMojojin]

The biggest difference is the supraphonic snare!

[@daveshere]

Vintage ludwig's are so pure deep and huge full sound!! It has a signature sound you cannot beat. , (Eric carr) ( mitch mitchel) john bonham) (Alex van halen) and even buddy rich knew

[@caplumbayunak8660]

I like both drums but what Ilike the most is the beats lol

[@MrBKus]

Vintage snare + and neusonic toms +, bass drumm both ++

[@tracysmith5524]

After a couple listens my final opinion is: I really enjoyed the full-sounding vintage kit’s bass and toms, but really liked the tone of the Neusonic snare.

[@ramsingivargis6616]

Vintage have a unique tone

[@kirjian]

Those toms sing dude. Holy moly

[@gmoney1592]

You simply can’t go wrong with either one

[@whatsyourpreferencepodcast436]

I love the sound of the vintage one

[@edvinbergfalk7416]

Something rattling in the neusonic bassdrum?

[@brucelilly8459]

I liked both. The vintage had a slightly deeper tone and the new had a brightness. Both have good attack. I like the vintage a bit better. When the neusonic gets some age on it I think it will sound a bit darker too

[@JazzyJonas]

I don't have a strong preference, but I will say the vintage had more of a "punch" and the Neusonic had more of a "note" or definite pitch.

[@DeBoltDrummingShorts]

I hear that too!

[@paulysci925]

I hate to say it but nuesonic. On it's own the vintage is cool but it needs it's bearing edges recut next to the nuesonic

[@FishingWithJimbo]

Would you recommend this kit for worship music? Tracking and such. The neusonic

[@drummerguy4032]

Gotta give it to the vintage.

[@samorka2330]

Vintage has more character

[@guyclements4602]

The Good old days when Brant Bjork played in Kyuss .

[@dondonaldth]

L'originale. La vraie. Tellement flagrant...

[@CarlosGarcia-vy4ek]

Are amazing the 2 set

[@Johnny_Lydon]

I say neither because the actual drums had little to do with the sound. Its a plywood instrument which means that the wood doesnt vibrate like a guitar would, the glue inbetween each thin layer of would dissipates that energy quite quickly. The drum heads, tuning, and mics are what yall are actually listening to. DO you guys really think that you can notice some sort of astronomical difference between these two kits through a youtube video?

[@patrickseanmclain2357]

I like them both now this one he did it right that was done right yes if you could do seven drum sets with various tones and pitch same thing nice clean brakes not too fancy just nice and smooth we can appreciate that here and all those different drum tones you did a good job have a great day 🥁🎧💯💾👍

[@B166ER-]

The newer kit is more focused a little bit less dynamic.

[@DrummerDanny76]

I liked the vintage one

[@GeorgeKam]

VINTAGE!!

[@retiredaccountbriant]

These are amazing kits.

[@williamperri3437]

Vintage DESTROYS the new kit. I think I would go with the Catalina clubs over the new Ludwig

[@willywillywillywillywilly]

The vintage kick and snare are both way better sounding. I prefer the vintage toms too, frankly :/

[@rogerchavez2531]

First one had a slightly more resonant/woody sound, like a live sound. Second one had a more studio tight sound. I'm not a drummer btw but I could hear the difference.

[@haydenstulen3422]

I’m pretty sure this is what Tom Skinner uses

[@joelonsdale]

Vintage anyday!!

[@studiodsr]

Did they go out of their way to make the new kit sound bad? Something tells me this isn’t an apples to apples comparison

[@armelizamorales2125]

Idk much about stuff. The 2nd has more jive compared to the coolness of the first ?

[@matsonsmith]

I liked the vintage

[@michaelbarady6636]

Neusonic 👍

[@Heisemberg000]

Vintage snare is a bomb

[@CacyHughes]

Vintage, definitely. Better tone, gorgeous resonance.

[@nickyp310]

taco bell commercial.

[@Musical_Sweetness]

Damn, I have to go with the vintage! Nice rhythms thought!

[@ourolivehome]

The neusonic is growing on me. 🔥

[@jarrettwalck3409]

Older kit sounds much better

[@jsntnt13-]

Vintage!

[@robertharding8394]

Vintage

[@mattdeese298]

Sounds like a drum

[@Allison_Chaynes]

Vintage.

[@tavohollywood4748]

Black Beauty for the win!

[@MrDenis7p]

Vintage, they just sound better

[@chezts6731]

Vintage I preferred idky but it just sounds nice

[@gregross7206]

Vintage is the only way to fly

[@gregross7206]

I played Ludwig forever and love ❤ the fat sound

[@theheadlesshorseman8398]

Where did you come that vintage set?

[@praiseworship8757]

Vintage is better.

[@chaddyer332]

Vintage ❤

[@Dave1979z]

The vintage all day. The neusonic just sounds like another drum sample from a drum module to me to be totally honest. The kick on the neusonic doesn't sound good to me at all.

[@markanderson1041]

Neusonic have rounded edges? Like it more

[@Wildbro-i6f]

Vintage all day!

[@artisticvision1988]

I enjoyed the vintage overall. Especially the snare and toms, they were a lot fatter of a sound

[@kevc21]

Vintage. Not close.

[@rezrez_]

Where did you get your hat?

[@francoisduval3304]

Les deux sont super mais je préfère la nouvelle ❤

[@StuartJrBarrett]

Vintage all day
