So, even though I was leaning toward a 21, I caught a smoking deal on a brand new GG15 direct from griot's from a certain online retailer. It actually wound up working out better for me because I really didn't need any of the boss creams or pads as I've recently standardized to Lake Country thinpros and am really liking the jescar products. I also didn't incur the additional cost of the 21 especially considering having to purchase a separate backing plate.
With that said I've never really used a large throw orbital. All of my experience comes from a PC years ago (pre XP model...sheesh), and my current GG3/MT300 combo. I just recently put thinpros on the MT300 with Jescar products and McKees 360, and have been shocked at the results. I can only imagine this gg15 will do even better.
So are there any pitfalls to be aware of when transitioning from standard 8mm throw and relatively weak machine to long throw and relatively powerful? Are the thinpros a good way to go in place of the boss pads which I imagine are either the same thickness or maybe a little thicker? should I be alright with no center hole?
