The shape is one of the most obvious difference between the two, the belly is not as round as in the Classics or Matadors, this in fact affects the type of sound projected from the drum itself, with the classics or Matadors you will get a much better base tone than with the classic II. Then there is the hardware, not bad hardware just not like the Classics or Matadors, as for the skins, they all come with "hand picked", mediocre. If it was me I would save the extra cash for a set of Classics or Matadors. Hope this helps, good luck

Thanks... I also was pointed to another thread about them - seems they're a GC exclusive product, and not all that great... guess I'll keep looking.
