In the early '70's, fiberglass and acrylic drums were very popular. Every company eventually tried their hand at manufacturing acrylic drums. But the rage soon died, and many companies stopped making them. There were a few hardy individuals who carried on manufacturing drums made out of fiberglass.

Paul Mason of Vancouver B.C. was, and still is, one of these hardy individuals. He makes great kits in stunning sparkle colors. I currently use one of these snare drums and more than one studio engineer has remarked about the great sound that I get out of it.
