1970s Ludwig 'Tivoli' Vistalite in Smoke - 14x22, 8x12, 9x13, 16x16

Here is a something you don't see everyday - an original Ludwig Vistalite 3 band "Pattern A" in triple smoke! This is a Tivoli kit and originally had lights inside all of the drums. Unfortunately only the plug holes remain in the toms, and the there is no power supply, but the bass drum still has the internal lights and on/off switch. Overall, a rare born together kit in player's condition with a few unoriginal parts. 

14 x 22 - This drum is pretty much all original, even sporting the Ludwig heads of the era. Features 20x large lugs, 20x T-rods 7 claws, 2x hoops with complete white cortex inlay, 5/16" spurs (one is unoriginal), diamond mount, internal lights, and plug for the power supply. There is a repaired crack in the drum that runs near the spur mount through one panel, but it has been professionally repaired and is hard to even see. Otherwise the Vistalite is pretty clean, with no heavy scratching on top which is common. Batter bass drum hoop is missing some paint, as shown. Chrome is clean, but there is some pitting on some lugs. Badge is lifting in one corner.

Features 12x large lugs, 12x tension rods (Half original, half new), 2x triple flanged hoops (one unoriginal), classic mount, and the backing plate for the muffler (muffler itself missing).

Chrome has been cleaned, but some light pitting and minor corrosion can still be seen on lugs/hoops.

Features 12x large lugs, 12x new tension rods, 2x triple flanged hoops (one unoriginal), classic mount, and the backing plate for the muffler (muffler itself missing).
