VISIONARY PARTICLE PEARL??????
« on: December 05, 2006, 12:14:29 AM »
Does any agree that is the only coverstock that is missing in the Visionary Line is a Particle Pearl? I would love to see then make one.

It's been talked about as a hole in their line-up for years now.

I hope that is not the case they need to plug the hole in the line-up with a particle pearl ball.

That's very true.  There's a lot of overlap between solid reactives and particle pearls.  The pearlization helps get through the head oil (like reactives) and the particles smooth out the back end that you'd normally get from a pearl.  Solid reactives are very much the same way, slipping in oil but without too much overreaction on the dry like a pearl ball would.

Instead of a pearl particle, I like the idea of polishing a particle ball like the Granite Gargoyle....Try it works really good for me and fills the hole between my AMB Particle & AMB Solid....

Personally, I would love to see a particle pearl Gryphon.  The Blue Sparkle and G-3 were both top notch.  Add a part/pearl to it.

Good point, but unfortunately polishing the GG is somewhat labor intensive.

Takes me a matter of minutes
