Yamaha DTXpress/DTXplorer/DTXtreme

Hi dog,

I can wholeheartedly recommend the Pintech ConcertCast snare (10") 
or the AX14 piccolo snare (14") for use with the Yamaha. I know that 
at least one person, Walt to be precise, has the Yamaha RHP120SD 
(12"), which he thinks is the greatest thing since sliced bread, and 
he's also used the Pintechs. If you're aiming at the Yamaha, now's 
the right time, since it's been closed out for a few months. Try 
Musiciansfriend and Riks Music for low closeout prices.
