Here is a unique 1978 Ludwig Vistalite Pattern A Red Black Green 6pc drum set. Vistalites just don't get any better looking than the Pattern finishes. Super rare to find them, and to find them without any issues. This is an excellent example of American drum manufacturing history! Drums consist of 14x22 bass drum, 16x18 floor tom, 16x16 floor tom, 10x14 tom tom, 9x13 tom tom, and 5x14 snare drum. Kit is free of any cracks or modifications. Drums suffer some surface scuffs here and there, but honestly…what 30+ year old kit doesn't. Bearing edges are in great shape. All the hardware is original to the kit with the exception of the bass drum tom mounting bracket. It is an exact matched Ludwig Repro mount. Round muffler on all toms are missing, but who uses those things anyway?! Talk about being a nuisance! The 10x14 tom tom has the most severe abrasive scratch. However, it is rather inconspicuous being on the black panel. Bass drum hoops are in excellent condition with original inlay. A new Ludwig Vistalite in this configuration will price out at just over 3k, but you won't find any in Pattern finishes. I'm the third owner of this kit. This kit sounds killer, and is quite the attention grabber. Drums are outfitted with near new Remo Pinstripe batter heads, and Remo Ambassador resonant heads. Please ask any and all questions. You can reach me at 312-206-9465 Sun-Sat from 12pm-6pm. Kit will ship fully insured in 3 brand new boxes lined with 1" foam. No Cymbals, or auxiliary hardware included.
