Finding the right cymbal.

Posts: 1836 Threads: 336

Ive been on a quest trying to find the right cymbals. I will just know when I hear it. I don't have enough experience to know weights and what not but I found that Steve Maxwells site has a lot of sound files with their cymbals. It also tells their weight. This really helped me get a better idea of what Im looking for. If you are on a quest for cymbals I suggest checking out that site.

NOTHING beats vintage cymbals. Old Zildjians, thick ones. Before the ink stamps.

I'd like to get my hands on a 60s pasha, the ones that were made for rogers by ufip right?
