I am not exactly sure what we are seeing in the pictures. When the 'now' pic was released, I surmised that they were showing us the "before" of the before and after suspension system. And the picture could be a white SQ1, but the series name is much longer on the badge. That could all be smoke and mirrors to distort things and throw us off. we shall see what pics they release next.

Yeah, those are medium shells...and they look like Beech to me, at least the inner ply does.

I'm not kidding--my luck is that these are a resurrection of the S Classix shells. You heard it here first.

Sq1 style floor tom bracket, prolite style badge but thicker shells with no reinforcement rings, and now sq2 style badge.

It's not adding up

I don't think that is an SQ2 style badge. I think it is a ProLite/SQ1 style badge blacked out.
