If it's not a MyMybox Blueshark, a CobaltFlux, a RedOctane Ignition, or from Konami, then don't trust it. Although homemade pads are usually really good.

and this is why they are hammer proof

Well, much to my dismay I received my two TX2000's this morning. After finding them beaten lying against my garage after going out to breakfast I shrugged off their outward appearance and brought them into my basement where they would hopefully spend a long and happy lifetime. Sadly this would not be the case. Upon opening both pads I was greeted by many dents and nicks across their shiny metal surface and a crack or six in the buttons. Damage that was surely done prior to packing. I also painfully realized how sharp the bad welding job was on the back "bar holder" portion of the pad. The buttons have odd gaps between them causing the pad to look uneven. I was at this point unsurprised to find the mark of what must have surely been a hammer dropped from the third floor of a building upon my glimmering metal pad. I'm not sure if anyone else has run into any of these issues with TX-2000's but they seem very poorly made for the pricetag.

Now that I've been forced to argue profusely with the customer service department via email (due to their lack of phone number) I will hopefully be receiving either a brand new set of TX-2000's OR shelling out and buying myself two 2" bluesharks (I'm tired of waiting for the 3" w/bar to return).

After that long rant that needed venting to this fine community, the question:

Are 2" Blueshark pads better in many ways than TX2000's and how, and are Bluesharks assembled with care and talent, or slapdash by some homeless stoner with a hammer?




everywhere it says TX-2000, replace it with Duramat

That's the spirit, it'll make the perfect hammer-umbrella.
