The one guy at Animal Kingdom let me try his out & play for a few mins
(you'd have tought he was a salesman for zendrum!)...was an impressive
instrument! Didn't think it was all that heavy...about that of a Les
Paul or a little heavier. They have a different smaller version, but
I like the way the triggers are placed on the larger version. I think
its going to be my next purchase, as it is a LOT cheaper than a Stick
Bass! (LOL!)

It'll be VERY interesting triggering some of them with a modern
module, and then some of them with my SDS-9 or SDS1000!
