As a drummer, I constantly geek out over drums and drum hardware and gear. One of my biggest obsessions is Ludwig Vistalite drums. You know, the acrylic drums John Bonham used to play. It is my dream to own a set of Vistalites. So needless to say, when I saw Russian Circles perform at Will's Pub, I had to take a picture of drummer Dave Turncrantz's kit. I love the way way shines through the translucent shells, especially when colored lights shines through Dave's red drum shells, creating new colors. I wish this picture really did the kit justice.
B.C. Rich did a series of acrylic guitars that did the same thing. Especially on the lime green mockingbird it was a VERY cool effect.
