Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

This Super Mario Drum Set Uses the Green Pipes as the Body

— April 21, 2014 — Tech
This Super Mario drum set will make the drummer the most memorable one in the band at any live show. The drum set was created by SJC custom drums and features an image of the classic game on the pad, with other goodies that made the game so iconic featured as well.

The original Mario is such an icon that it still gets played to this day. The green tubes that Mario could descend into and ascend out of were so prominent in the game that SJC custom drums decided to use that particular silhouette, in all of its pixelated glory as the main body.

The top of the drums also feature the original Mario in the air. These drums will be the number one attraction at all live shows.
