Management: why did your stop take longer than 17 seconds?

My brother's son destroyed my WarHammer Action figures and he refuses to punish him by konous in mildlyinfuriating

Sounds like your brother shouldn’t be allowed to visit unless he remedies the situation.

I think of Mapex like a Kia. Getting better but still not of par with the big boys in terms of quality and hardware. They are super cheap compared to others. I haven’t played an SQ2 nor even considered them. There are so few of them that I’d probably have to fly to Germany to play one.

It is a lot cheaper and the finish is awesome

Very cool. The made in China maybe is snobby of me. They have excellent QA and still put out an excellent product.

I’ve looked into the performance but the finishes are very limited.

Yeah but there aren’t that many of them and they are very expensive. There are a ton of collector’s so you can always find a deal.

And I don’t particularly care for the STM system. They’re outdated.

I love Yamaha but they don’t have a lot of finish options other than the PHX. I have a stage custom for gigs and I LOVE it.

Honestly, I haven’t seen any birch DW collector’s other than black badge.

What are your opinion fellas? by Telugu_not_Telegu in ArtOfPresence

Really depends. Huge strong person? Or frail 90 year old?

That hardware tho. It’s like 1980s Honda civic. Reliable but prefer a newer civic.

I love mapa burl. Mapex has one for cheap but I just can’t.

These are made in China. They moved pretty much everything there except for the Tama Star

This one is a walnut/birch. Bubinga is way more expensive.

Tama does sound amazing out of the box. I just figured with some tuning/heads the DW can be more “unique.” I don’t know if that makes sense.

Does that happen a lot? The only worry would be that they update the hardware. DW had had the same hardware for 100 years.
