50th anniversary of the Ludwig Vistalite Celebrating 50 years of the stunning Vistalite series first introduced in 1972. Notorious for their attack and stunning transparent aesthetics the Vistalite acrylic drums are a statement both sonically and visually. Since their introduction Vistalite drums have been performed on and coveted by some of the world’s top drummers – including John Bonham of Led Zeppelin. The original Vistalites are a collectors item available in clear blue green red amber and yellow. These kits were famously played by Karen Carpenter Keith Moon from the Who Nick Mason from Pink Floyd Ron Bushy from Iron Butterfly John Bonham from Led Zeppelin and Jay Osmond from The Osmonds. In 1976 Ludwig broadened the line with the addition of the Rainbow Vistalites. This kit featured multi-coloured shells. Tequila Sunrise was the most popular release at this time with a combination of red orange and yellow stripes. The multi-coloured acrylic shells were co-invented by Elvis Presleys drummer Ronn Tutt. A stunning look and an even better sound from the acrylic shells The Ludwig Vistalite kit features reinforced seam moulded acrylic shells to produce a strong attack with clear balanced tones which are well suited to a range of genres. The shell is fully stabilised and features a dual reinforced seam for exceptional strength to accompany the eye-catching crystalline look. The high-quality shell is also equipped with durable chrome hardware which adds to the strength of the drums without compromising the stunning design.
