Re: Pintech TC series mono cymbal pads

2003-06-16 by liberatusvirus

Stewart,

You're right about the TCs. They are Pintech's practice cymbals with 
the piezo attached as an afterthought. Should we keep our eyes open 
in the States for PCYs and if any emerge, tell you about them and 
arrange to get them for you in absentia? Also, we could alert Ed 
Morin at Drumbalaya that we're on the lookout for them. The price 
will probably be a bit higher than a private sale but still viable, 
no?  Our vast network of e-drummers could go on the case.
