About Ludwig Drums Established in 1909 by William F. & Theobald Ludwig the Ludwig Drum Company has since progressed to become one of the worlds leading drum manufacturers. William had been a professional drummer performing and touring with circuses and shows along with occasional gigs. The brothers decided to open a drum shop in Chicago and called it Ludwig & Ludwig. The company began with a concept for the design and manufacture of a bass drum pedal but quickly progressed adding new products to the catalogue including snare drums and timpani. After Theobald Ludwig died in 1918 William continued by himself and by 1923 Ludwig had become one of the largest drum manufacturers in the world employing 240 workers. In the late 20s Ludwig & Ludwig was sold to C.G. Conn instrument company and despite staying on to run the company which now belonged to Conn William Ludwig eventually left to start a new company which he named after his initials: the WFL Drum Company in 1937. During WWII the company was producing drums on a small scale but soon grew in size to become one of the main competitors for Ludwig & Ludwig. In the following years Ludwig & Ludwig stopped producing drums altogether meaning William and his son Bill Jr. were able to buy the Ludwig trademark back from Conn. During the 1960s Ludwig began to receive huge amounts of publicity and their products started to become much more widely recognised throughout the drumming industry. Ludwig started to introduce more and more products to their ranges with key artists such as John Bonham from Led Zeppelin performing on Ludwig drums and gaining yet more publicity and recognition. Since the 1960s and 1970s Ludwig has maintained its status as one of the most popular drum manufacturers in the world.
