I too, play on a BG Revelation (regular type), there is also a Super, which
has green felt instead of red on the inside and there is another one which I
have not tried yet. The Super tends to be a little brighter than the
regular. The other one that I have not tried yet I'd like to know if anyone
has played it and what is it like. From the picture, that I have seen, it
looks plastic, or is it also a cloth material?

Best regards,
Tony

P.S. I thought some of the Pyne string ligatures were good too, I just have
not tried one lately.
