A Ludwig Vistalite Amber ShellSet is the epitome of 70s rock'n roll. Optically and sonically an absolute statement in high-end quality. The acrylic shells are still considered to be the most stable of their kind and they deliver a crystal-clear signal, matching the optics, characterized by volume and linearity. The solid attack and the exact bearing edges of 45° make the drums a reliable companion on tour and in the studio. The Ludwig Vistalite Amber has a cult status since 1973, when the legendary John Bonham started to play his stylish Vistalite kit and helped the series to worldwide popularity.
This Vistalite Amber ShellSet delivers the pure, full Ludwig sound and is at the same time a worldwide sought-after instrument of music historical importance. The extremely stable acrylic shells come with the well-known Mini Classic lugs and are of course manufactured in the U.S.A. under the highest quality requirements.
Ludwig's Vistalite drumsets have been popular worldwide for their volume and attack since 1972, as well as their breathtaking looks, which gained global fame early on thanks to Led Zeppelin. The clear and defined sounds are perfect for live use as they do not produce any disturbing secondary frequencies.
Manufactured to extremely high quality standards in the U.S.A., they still outperform the competition with their high stability and quality. This is due, among other things, to double-reinforced shells and the special manufacturing process. The bearing edge is exactly 45°, therefore tuning stability and an exact head fit are guaranteed. To the delight of all vintage drummers, the Ludwig Vistalite Amber ShellSet is still equipped with the classic Blue/Olive badges, just like in the 70s.
