How do you all store your cymbals?

Posts: 6287 Threads: 375

I tried but didn't find the pic that Drumaholic posted of the storage bins used by one of the Philharmonic Orchestras, maybe Philadelphia....

Anyway, I think it was a cabinet of labeled deep bin-style drawers and each cymbal had a sleeve of parchment paper?

Maybe not useful here, but it is a cool picture..... dang

Bulldog,Gorgeous Dream bliss ride you have there. I have the 22" and the vintage bliss 19". Incredible!-kellyj

Yeah, I noticed it too. My son often gigs with a beautifully matched pair of 22" and 20" Dream Bliss'. Although he has access to number of handmade and vintage cymbals, he leans towards the Dreams if the venue is not too lively. In a really under-damped room, like a club with brick walls, the wash can overwhelm the sticking a bit. But... other than that they are more often than not his "go to" cymbals these days for jazz gigs. They are amazing and the price for the pair was significantly less than the cost of a single new high end cymbal like a 22" KCon MTL

once the brass ceases to glitter, and the drum looses its luster, and the stage remains dark, all you have left is the timbre of family.
