I’ll be interested to see if Yamaha brings out a Crosstown throne at some point. With you on the bolt through, I like to know it’s not going anywhere mid-set. This looks interesting though.

That takes us down a rabbit hole of what Americans consider cheese for starters 😏

Thank you for the disclaimer in the title. I would like to see this become an MPAA and OFC (Australian version) standard. seriously though, sounding great. I’m digging that fat snare and The cymbals sound great. The lead guitar had some great tone on the solo as well, as for the singer he...
