The Ludwig Vistalite Zep Set pays homage to the iconic Ludwig acrylic drums of the 1970s. With stunning, seamless 6mm acrylic shells, this 5-piece shell pack conjures the instantly recognizable Ludwig tone that defined a generation of drummers.

Make Your Mark With Ludwig's 2024 Color of the Year

The stunning purple shells of the Vistalite Fab pack will make your presence known behind the kit. As Ludwig's limited 2024 Color of the Year, this eye-catching purple hue is sure to turn heads before it returns to the vaults. The glossy acrylic shells magnify the rich purple tones, creating a visual treat under stage lighting. With theZep Set 5-Piece all featuring the exclusive purple shells, your whole kit will share in the magic.

Iconic, Visually Stunning Acrylic Shells

    GREAT BONHAM SET!! What could be better: The bass drum logo should be on the far side resonant side, the rack tom should have only 6 lugs, the bass drum hoop detail should be a subdued solid gold, not a sparkle gold. Drum set should come with the REMO black dot heads. ALSO if Ludwig added the BONZO 3 ring logo on the resonant bass drum head,That will make the product more accurate to what John Bonham played in 1973!! All in all I love my ZEP LUDWIGS!!

    I’m sorry but no. Shell packs are only the drums. There is no hardware, cymbals or pedals included
