Ron Bushy - Drum Set

Drum Set

He built his own plexiglas acrylic drum set and it is thought to be the first one built using plexiglas acrylic. It has a number of butterfly picture cut-outs taped to it. The bass drum is twice the depth of a normal bass drum, so it pushes a longer column of air. The air column was so strong that when miking the bass drum, small sandbag weights were used to keep the air column from pushing over the microphone.
