Def Leppard guitarist Vivian Campbell has revealed Rick Allen used an electronic drum kit on the new studio album.

Vivian responded to a fan question on facebook from a Lep fan named Michael about the type of drums used by Rick on this new album.

The description appears to indicate he used a kit similar to the one he uses at live shows.

Rick has been using an acoustic snare drum on recent new material including the 'Mirrorball' tracks and most of the 'Songs From The Sparkle Lounge' album.
