Message	Im VERY satisfied with my Greg D(specialty Z) tp and dp, they were not cheap but the quality is second to none, little things like welds on the inside of each of the joints, then grinded smooth to reduce turbulance, have no resonation problems at all, great low tone at all times, granted there are a few other brands out there that have a good design, I've heard AMZ makes a good set, stillens are good but pricey, Z1's are ok if you get the better versions, but if I was you and planned on keeping the Z for a while.... 1. never get mods from ebay, Its all crap 2. you can spend more now...or spend more later, why not do it now and get the better, longer lasting, higher quality mods...
