Alright so Im looking to upgrade my set, along with my cymbals and other things.
Im looking into buying a mapex set off my drum teacher (dont ask anything about it because I havent seen it or anything yet) thats set up for jazzish type drumming, and want to get decent jazz cymbals to go along with it. Please recomend something seeing as how I know clsoe to nothing about cymbals.

Those are the big 3. You can also check out Meinl, Wuhan, UFIP, Istanbul Agop, Saluda, Bosphorus, Masterwork...
An approx. spending limit would help. For jazz, there are lots...

If you want some good jazz cymbals check out some Istanbul and Bosphorus. They make some great stuff. Other then that, what was reccommended are good cymbals.

You should check out some Zildjian Avedis custom..they're expensive, but they're freaking awesome..for most styles i believe..:)
