Hi guys,
just wondering something. If you look at the features of the new club dates and the legacy maples, they are very similar. LM are three layers (plus reinforcement ring), CB are 7 layers (no r. rings), both maple-poplar-maple. Although the amount of layers is different, the total thicknes is almost identical 6,6mm VS 6,4mm. What I mean is that the amount, build and type of wood (apart from the reinforcement rings) is very similar. The CB have rounded bearing edges, and the Legacies are in theory 30 degrees. If you read the shell sheet of the Legacies, the edge of the actual shell (without the ring), is also round. It is the reinforcement ring which is cut at 30 degrees:

What I am wondering is, how sonically different are these drums if the actual contruction is so similar?? Has anyone had the chance of trying them both? Funny thing is that the club dates cost half the money!
Thanks for your help!
