Acrylic shell, SFT strainer
This is a very early Fibes since it is from Farmingdale, NY, serial #4323

Fibes was started by Bob Grauso and John Morena in Farmingdale, NY in the '60s and they really made a mark. 

The Fibes shell was superb, and the SFT strainer worked really well. The sensitivity and projection are incredible and the drums sound great. Just listen to the two videos and you'll see what I mean. By the same token, the acrylic shells Fibes used were also wonderful. These are NOTHING like the Vistalite shells Ludwig made. The Fibes acrylics are fabulous
