If you want to look like every other player out there, then the VX Plasma is probably not for you. However if you're the kind of drummer that, well, marches to your own beat, then Mapex has something for you. They start with thin, genuine basswood shells and using a unique eight-step finishing process, give them a three-dimensional textured lacquer surface that's unlike any other. What's more, the VX comes with everything you need to start creating the moment you open the box. Available in: Plasma Black (VK), Plasma Ruby (VR), Plasma Slate (VT), Plasma Sapphire (VU)Attention: Single drums must be special ordered, and typically require 120 days to ship. Please call for availability.
