If you have never drummed before and are looking for your first cymbals, these should be ok.

Well my parent would buy a cymbal set for me as a birthday present (like I said at the start-birthday!) and, well around £100, not much more. Is this a decent set, every set that I have found im told that there is something better, someone has a different opinion or the cymbals are supposedly 'crap', but seriously, anything is better than mine.

If it were me I would spend the money on a pro cymbal instead of the 3 Paistes...It would save u money in the long run

Those are basically stock cymbals. Buy something better in my opinion.

I Would stick with stocks until i could afford good ones, ask your parents and other family for money and get a really good set of hats or something.

What you guys think? They may not be the best cymbals, but they should be good enough. Thanks for your help, in this thread and others.

AAX's are amazing excellent cymbals. the crashes and hats are just awsome, especailly the stage hats, AAX-Celerator hats, and the stage crashes and(of course) AAXplosion crashes
