Ludwig 50th Anniversary 6.5x14 Inch Vistalite Snare Drum in Limited Edition Black Sparkle/Smoke/Black Sparkle Finish with 3 Band Rainbow Pattern

William F. Ludwig II first introduced Vistalite acrylic shells in 1972, joining Wood and Steel shells as part of the "Ludwig Triad of American Manufacturing." Fifty years later, Vistalite is still the clear favorite among drummers all over the world. To celebrate this 50th Anniversary, Ludwig has released a series of limited edition, 70's era patterned finishes that are available at Chuck Levin's Washington Music Center.

Only Vistalite Can Look And Sound This Good at 50

Notorious for their attack as they are for their stunning crystalline looks, Vistalite reinforced seam molded acrylic drums make a solid sonic and visual statement in live concert performance. Manufactured under strict guidelines to retain shell integrity, today's Vistalite delivers a pure, round tone through a fully-stabilized shell and dual reinforced seams; without succumbing to the cracking that plagued the kits of yesterday.
