Yamaha DTXpress/DTXplorer/DTXtreme

There seems to be renewed interest in the excellent pads from the 
first DTXtreme kit, but they have been almost impossible to find 
since the DTXTI's demise. No more, at least for a limited time. Ed 
Morin tells me that Drumbalaya now has "a TON of DTXTREME-I pads – we 
purchased Yamaha's ENTIRE obsolete inventory as well as ALL their B/C 
stock items they had accumulated over the course of several years.  
Much of it is in our Bargain Basement, but the stuff that may be of 
particular interest to you and other DTX enthusiasts are the RHP80, 
RHP120SD and KP120.  The hot ticket is to take a DTXPRESS-III Special 
Edition kit and swap all the pads out for the DTXTREME-I pads using 
RHP80's for toms and, of course, the RHP120SD for snare and KP120 for 
kick.  With the new cymbals, it's a hot setup AND the new DTXPRESS-
III module has support for the RHP pad types!!  Amazing."

As the song goes, "If I were a rich man . . . ." I wish I didn't need 
every scrap of cash right now to build an addition to my house 
(including a little e-drum studio). Otherwise I'd be gobbling up some 
of these babies right away. Get'em while they're hot.
