Hey gang, I have a 78 Vistalite that I've owned for going on 20 years. Neat little story about it; It belonged to my old drum teacher when I was about 20. He swapped it to a drum trader for a clear vistalite set.
I told him that if I had known he was getting rid of it that I'd have bought it, so he gave me the trader's number and I got it.
Anywho, long story short, I moved, and my brother put it in his basement for me. Fast forward a decade or so and I have just taken posession of the drums again from him and am looking to bring her back to her glory.
His basement took water so the lugs on the bottom of the bass drum are oxidized like an old car battery, and the wood hoops are trashed. Aside from a decade of dust and some spider's nests, she's in good shape.
