new vistalites VS. vintage!

Posts: 621 Threads: 135

my band played with this touring band from Grand Rapids, MI. on Sunday and their drummer had a 70's clear vistalite set that sounded killer.

i have not heard the new(er) ones.

which sound better?

however,

i did hear a newer Fibes crystalite jelly-bean kit and i instantly went home and put my kit on ebay to try to get the money for it.

then someone bought it..

:(

I've heard them both...they sound the same to my ears.....new ones are made out of better plastic than the old ones and the seams hold up better.
