LOL.... I've had those thoughts as well, and if
time was on my side, I might be driven to more experimentation, but alas, it is
not.
I've just searched thru the archives to find other
discussions regarding generally mesh vs rubber, and now I'm more uncertain, as
it seems that some folks are really impressed with mesh, and some like me have
really been impressed with the DTX2S rubber.
Now I'm not sure if I should add the Hart drums in
to keep the acoustic look, or if I should go with all Yamaha pads to keep the
consistant rubber feel across the kit and with much regret, sacrifice the
look... man, this sucks... yamaha... are you listening... build a TP-100 that
looks like an acoustic... thanks...

I was pondering if it might be feasible to mount the TP100 pads
*inside* the top of a regular A shell.
Perhaps a couple of inexpensive 12" tom shells, cut in half and with
top hoop and lugs fitted, and some sort of cushioned support system
so that the TP100s would just lie, snug as a bug in a rug, at the
right height at the top of the shell. You could do the same with the
TP120.
Just the musings of a slightly tired old man. Ignore me, I'll fall
asleep soon and leave you all alone.
