I second that. A lot of CLYWs have similar shapes but play way different.

Clyw does certainly have a feel to them but as much as an avalanche and ac have identical profiles the play totally different!!!

Sure, but they could also have completely different shapes and specs and would still play differently.

these all look pretty much the same to me.  
This happens quite a lot in other industries where a brand keep making iterations while maintaining their identity.  
I can’t speak from experience for CLYW specifically as the only CLYW I own is Akita, but yeah I can see both sides of the discussion and I can understand that CLYW want to maintain it’s look and feel.
