Really? I didn't know that. Thanks for the tip, I'll have to keep that in mind...
I have to agree with yohin that the RBDRs are really nice rides, and that everything else in the AAX line was washier than I would like. I started with the HH RBDR but thought it was too dry - it...
Say: "It really bums me out when Dave Weckl dumbs-down the complex drum parts I write for him, but whaddaya gonna do, it pays the bills."
That's a purdy sweet hat, alright. If it sounds 1/100 as good as it looks, then a buck twenty-five is a steal! lol
That's AWESOME!
Was there a body to this post somewhere?
Been waiting for my new New Beats (on order). In the meantime I've been borrowing a friends spare set of hats: 13" Zildjian K/Z combo. Man, them are some seriously sweet hats. They don't sound like...
PHROGGE - I think you and me need to start the first church of New Beat!!
Happy Birthday, PB!
That does seem to be the holy grail of ride cymbal requirements. I went through the same search a couple months ago and after trying a few, settled on the Sabian AA Raw Bell Dry Ride. It might be...
Update:
I'm reluctant to admit that the Sabian Hats I was so smitten over (above) are now back at the drum shop. The guitar player showed up one practice and everyone was suddenly like, "where's...
The value of those can only go up over time. If I saw a set of North drums, I'd be all over them to (even though they're fiberglass single headed monstrosities!).
I like two bass drums over a double pedal, but as a practical matter, there are clubs that I've played that couldn't accommodate two floor toms, let alone two bass drums. The other practical...
Ahem! Is this one of those hot button issues? Seems like we should steer the conversation back to drumming, like: Why DO cymbals break, and who's fault is it? That's seems so much safer and on-topic!...
Congrats! I hope you like them!
Excellent point! I totally missed the fact that you'll be going from entry level mediocrity to among to coolest hats on the planet! (IMHO)
Note: Now that I have the Sabian AA hats, I can't help...
I looks like it would allow you to put your kick right smack in front of you, which means that your first and second rack toms would be equally accessible. I think would be cool, even though it might...
Nothing at all wrong with that combo! NOTHING!! (You're not in the Seattle area are you?). I just recently sold that exact pair a month or so ago (because I was switching to Sabian). I originally had...
I have 4 crashes that I rotate in and out of my set: two 18" 2oo2's (Med crash, MedThin crash), and two B20s (Sabian A MedThin Crash, Zildjian A Custom Proj crash). I really like the 2oo2's; they're...
I have a DW (5000? 2000? 419?... I don't remember) and an Iron Cobra. Both single pedals. I very much prefer the feel of the Iron Cobra, but am forced to use the DW more because the Iron Cobra...
I've smacked around some of the XS20s at drum stores and like those MUCH better than the B8/ZBTs. As mentioned earlier, they're the same bronze as the AA/AAX/HH/HHX/Vault/Paragon lines but the...
They do work well for that, but that falls into that "specialty" category, doesn't it? You need a pretty heavy foot to get them to shut up in less than 10 seconds!
I saw a guy use 16" heavy...
I gotta say that Mr. Tama is spot on, IMO. Go for the used pro-level anything over entry-level Sabian or Zildjian. Unless the B8 is a 2oo2, I wouldn't waste the time or money.
Clear head +1
I think it's cool to watch the pedal action from the audience. Apparently other people do too since I've been doing clear reso's for the last couple years and have had several...
