Here's one near Toronto that I can't afford. :) He's also got a 20" and 14" hats. Can't afford them either. I did find a 16" in a pawn shop up the street for $45.00 CDN. I think that's the way we all like to find these cymbals which are some of the most beautiful objects in the world...:)

Here's a pic of that 16".

Hey Matt have you re-worked any Sabian XS20 cymbals? They seem like a shoe-in being B20 with the small bells. If you had time what would you charge to give an XS20 an "old K" treatment, or is it doable?

Hey Mitch,

Sorry, but I just don't have the time for mod jobs.

I recommend Heather Stine. You can find her on Facebook.

Thanks,

Matt

Thanks Matt! I checked out her youtube page. For some reason I'm all about 20" cymbals these days, she has a ton of them up, and I think I pretty much loved every single one of them. If I don't have an XS20 re-worked I'll just buy a cymbal or two from her, very pleasantly surprised at the reasonable pricing.

Thanks again,

Mitch

Based on the weight, looks like half of an orchestral pair.

Yep, or might be a great suspended cymbal.

That seller is delusional. Seems to be a trend on sales lately. I've seen sellers raise the price on auctions that don't sell the first go around. I'm going to go out on a limb and say it didn't sell because it was priced to low, dare I say quite the opposite. There is an item on DFO right now, the seller questioned should he raise the price because he hasn't gotten any interest. Odd sales strategy for sure.




Looking for a late 80's to early 90's, preferably Arctic White Pearl MLX 14x14 floor tom.
