They have had all kinds of instruments to choose from with a myriad of different sound pictures. Perhaps when the public is exposed enough to some of the things being put out by some redesigners today they will decide on a new course. As Nossaman stated and I wholeheartely agree... he wants people to be exposed to new sounds get a chance to get used to something else. On the other hand... maybe the public will stay with what it likes. I sure as hell dont know. What I do know however... is that if there is any real indicator of value as to what <<sounds best>> its simply got to be in the consensus of the buying public. Why do they choose a slightly sour unison over a clean one ?? Perhaps... just perhaps its because they actually DO like it better... for whatever reasons. I think we have to be open to these kinds of possible realities. And... (and I underline this) THANK GOD there are folks around willing to do and try something else providing always alternatives. Perhaps one day one of those will rule the roost... and everyone can start shooting at that !... grin. Cheers RicB Terry writes: "...the buying public has been pretty clear about its choice...."
