BOOOO lol
nah its nice looking. prob sounds good to.
you know whats funny about all these mixed wood kits. i dont hear THAT big of a difference between them and other one wood kits to justify buying one.
I understand what you are saying as far as the sound-to-price ratio of some.
You just have to grow your ears to hear the difference
when they are properly tuned.
I personally can attest to the difference in sound. Now some may have an massive price but so do all boutique tools in any arena. In cameras their is the Hasselblad which cost $45-50,000. You may not have ever heard the name but REAL professional photographers have. As one's game is raised so does that need to produce that next level sound or get that sound that is in their head that seemingly no one else has heard (except the instrument designer that God assigned).
Back to drums...
The Premier Gen-X series Maple/Birch sounds way different than a pure Maple or pure Birch from in other pro series. Same with the Mapex Saturn series Maple/Walnut. Pearl Reference. Tama Bubinga/Birch and the list goes on. The key to hearing the difference tends to be exposure and quality tuning.
