The base is wood.
The Yamaha is more bass oriented and I like the crisp clear sound of high-hats etc. so when it comes to Bill Bruford, Gong, Porcupine Tree or Jazz the AKG is my first choice. It is easy to change the pick-up systems, because the pick-up arm came with a bayonett lock, so all I have to do is change the weight and the anti-skating ( I hope this is the correct term used in English ).
I think it will be a Thorens TD 295.
