ditto.
i seriously need to dust off my 57, thanx for reminding me. guitars, snares, toms- the i5 wins over the 57 for me. i just think now with the option of the i5, the 57 is alittle dated. the i5 is the new and improved 57. having said that i do love the 57 and will never get rid of any of mine. but its nice to change it up after using the 57 forever.
