Pros
Quality, rarity and collectability. The signature of one of drumming's true greats.
Cons
The price and lack of availability.
The bottom line
The shallow kick may not be fashionable at present, but that trend could change any time. There are unique touches, in particular the luxurious black chrome, so you can't assemble a similar (cheaper) kit from standard Yamaha stock. This is one for the serious fan with money to spare, an investment in a timeless classic.
