Jumping on the heels of today’s coffee clutch, Link Era for me means the years Horst Link was the President. That would be 1955 to 1991; so all matter of Teardrops, Champs, Phonics, Signatures, Lites, HiLites, up to the 3k 2k 1k stuff.
Classic Link Era would be the 1980s when the company really leaned into the high end luxury drum market with the Signature Series.
