If the shells are lighter, why not put the heavy duty galaxy hardware on them? In my opinion theat would open up that market of players who look for "upgraded" products with less costs.

RitmoBoricua wrote:Wow! Thank you for that! That was beautiful! How old is Candido now, late 80s? he still has rhythm! I agree Ritmo, he is the Grand Master and still looks good! As far a good reason for anybody to buy this new durian wood drums or what set these drums apart from the Gon Bops Mariano series I really cannot say do to I have never seen them in person or played them, but they both sound pretty good on video and look nice too!. What might make me buy either one or both is a killer deal.

Candido Camero is 92 and I can only hope
is I get to live to be 92 I can do what he is
doing on them drums, a true role model
in my book. Candido always had his own
sound and style of playing which involves
using his (articulating) fingers (they do
not call him " Thousand Finger Man" for
nothing).

Good point a killer deal is a pretty
good reason to buy the drums.
