Have you ever visited other Mapex' websites?  There's some other stuff we don't have here in North America.

Here's an ad on the Italian website of few endorsees with there respective drumset.  Look at the badges on the Saturns (in the middle of the pic).  OVAL!!!  ...and notice that Giovanni Pezzoli has a WHITE Saturn with GOLD HARDWARE. (so classy:drool:)

I didn't know that some endorsees have almost their special line-up:shock:  Craig Blundell asked Mapex for a Vserie bassdrum color-matching his new set but it's just a small detail I think to paint one drum in a particular finish.

I really dig the white Saturn pictured there.  I'm not quite into "Gold bling-bling" usually but I think it looks "sharp".

It's all the same!!!:D  You'll also find that some words haven't been translated maybe due to limited vocabulary of some languages (ex: I.T.S. mount system, PowerHoops, etc...)  For the rest, you may find yourself better than you thought (i.e. French has Latin roots so Italia and some other countries use words writen very similar... only few letters mixed like if it was writen by someone dyslectic:laugh:)

Enjoy your trip 'round the globe...
