blue sparkle - always has been....red sparkle, too....don't know why I favor those...they are very common

I also like black cortex because I think black and chrome always look classy

Red Tiger Pearl.

Wow- there are so many...

I like the finish that came on my Sino OCDP's Blue Onyx, which is more like a modern Ludwig WMP dyed blue- drums and some has this finish.

I like blue/white onyx, which is currently on my Premier bastard kit. Something special about that pattern...

I also love many of the satin flames. I like pink, I like green, and I like white. I love brunettes the same way...

I also love good ol' fashioned glass sparkle...

But I like the non-glass stuff, too!!!

WMP is mighty tasty.

But BOP turns my head like most blonde girls.

Chrome is like a red head- makes me feel a little bit dirty...

Sh**- just like my women, I really don't have a preference...

Ooh, that's a toughie.

I've always loved pearls. Midnight Blue Pearl was my favourite finish even before I chanced upon my 50s MBP Gretsch kit at the tender age of 16. It's still my favourite today. BDP is a close second.

Satins are lovely too. Champagne sparkle might be the classiest of all the finishes. And Precision Drum's ginger glass glitter is really something.

Sparkles of any kind. Love 'em.

Wouldn't mind a nice onyx kit at some point.

I have the kits I have always lusted for, wmp Slingerlands that a friend of our family had, blue sparkle Ludwigs that a kid in the neighborhood played and a blue agate snare which was my first kit. Although I do like black and natural maple.

Hmmmm........ I have the following in my little collection. I really don't have a favorite color for drums. Most of the sets I gigged with in the 60's were some variation on black. I discovered an affinity for brighter colors in the 80's when I bought a Green Glass Glitter Slingy set.

Champagne Sparkle 63 Rogers

Black Diamond Pearl 63 Leedy

Red Sparkle early 60's Orphan Ludwig rewrap set

Red Glass/White Marine/Blue Glass 68 five banded Slingy set

Salmon Satin Flame 65 Walberg & Auge set

Gold Glass Glitter 63 Walberg & Auge set

White 3-D Moire Leedy Orphans from the 40's, 50's, and 60's re-wrapped set

Red Glass Glitter 65/66 Slingerland set

Ice Blue Metallic 72 Walberg & Auge set

I have a recent purchase early 60's Slingerland set in Light Blue Pearl (Midnight Blue) on the way to me. The wrap is beyond redemption. So, I am going to rewrap them in some unusual discontinued Slingerland White Sparkle material that I have just waiting for a suitable candidate drum set.

i like lots of finishes but probably have to go with a Pearl if i had to settle for only one.

Sparkles and satin flames. Any color.
