I have three bass drums, 11 toms, 3 snare drums, 18 cymbals, and a few extra things. To replace drumheads on that would cost atleast 600 dollars, if not more. Then there are drum sticks, broken cymbals, then all the extra cymbals and stuff that most drummers like to add on to their set. In my experience, drums are the most expensive.

The difference is that in one he's got a rock band backing him up, and in the other, he's got the Prague Philharmonic Orchestra. I've got the classical one and I love it. Though I've never heard the rock version, I'm guessing that it wouldn't sound much different from his other instrumental stuff. The composition for the symphonic scores was actually done very well, not like Metallica's S&M disc where the symphony doubles their guitar riffs. I would recommend buying the orchestral version. -Dan. ________________________________________________________________ YOU'RE PAYING TOO MUCH FOR THE INTERNET! Juno now offers FREE Internet Access!

Message-ID: > Hey guys, I'm looking into buying an ESP MIII or an Ibanez JPM. I'm buying > in the next two days, so, does anyone have any suggestio9ns? Normally, I'd go with an ESP (including the LTD series) over an Ibanez any day of the week, but I'd definitely go with the JPM in this case (especially the camo one). It's just a better feeling and sturdier guitar - trust me - I've owned both... :) The only other Ibanez I'd take over an ESP is the Jem... I did enjoy the M-III's versatility (the single coil pickup adds options), but I replaced the pickups on the JPM with EMG-89's (dual mode) so I could get that single coil sound (EMG-SA) as well as the classic EMG-85 sound. This was pretty much just icing on the cake, however, because the JPM is simply a superior guitar... :) David ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 22 Mar 2000 15:53:34 +0000 From: Graham Borland To: ytsejam@torchsong.com Subject: Re: ESP or JPM?

It's cool to see a Scofield thread starting...I just saw him on friday opening for and sitting in with Bela Fleck & Co. His new stuff is real funky like....
