Are you sure you want to open that can of worms?
I'm curious now....please do open it haha.
I think these Absolute Hybrid Maple should be around in the same class as:
- DW Performance Series (definitely below Collectors)
- Ludwig Classic Maple (?)
- Gretsch Brooklyn Series (?)
and I agree Yamaha Phoenix price tag is ridiculous.
Here in Aus the 22x18 kick drum alone is RRP AUD $7999! (USD 6000).
For JUST the kick drum!
