Well the two Zyldjians that were included with the Rocker kit had the ink stamps on them. They did not sound that great to me so thats why I passed on the deal. They sounded like Sabian b8 quality. I already have some mid quality cymbals to include with the drum sets that I re-finish.The topic on this thread is research. I was hoping to hear of some good sites to visit so I can teach myself how to look at the stamps and physical characteristics of a cymbal to determine its age and value.JC
I'm afraid that the "teaching yourself" era has not yet arrived. So just bring your trademark questions here and you'll pick up a few things along the way.
There are a lot of trademark pseudo wanna be's out there with their "timelines", all based on some of the research that I've already done. So for that reason I'm holding back on the rest until the appointed time.
