im looking for a nice pair of aux hats, 14" ive got a pair of 14" k custom dark hats as my main hats, any ideas?

it will be on a pedal attachment so it will be a second pair of hi-hats.

Drum Phil 04-26-2006 02:06 PM

styler 04-26-2006 02:21 PM

Try the 13" K/Z customs, You won't be disapointed. The click on them is godlike. I was originaly gonna go for the 14"'s but the 13"'s are just, well, you'll see.

New Beats

then after awhile, you will realize their superiority, and then you'll find your K Customs will make great aux hats :cool:

New beats are just to plasticy IMO

just like HHX EVO hats are too buttery IMO

Maybe look at Paiste 20" 2002 thin and paper thin crashes, or a Zildjian 20" A Thin Cash

What exactly do "plasticy" and "buttery" mean when describing cymbals?

styler 04-27-2006 09:44 AM

hit plastic and butter with your stick. then youll know.

[QUOTE=SkacoreDrummer]Paiste rude thin crashes and the chinas are awesome.[/QUOTE]
im pretty sure you and i are the only ppl on this forum that thinks so :lol:

Drum Phil 04-27-2006 10:41 AM

Quite probably :p

styler 04-27-2006 12:17 PM

rude = only heavyset cymbal ill ever hit

ThugsRook 04-27-2006 12:23 PM

one of the great things about RUDE is that they never break along the lathing lines ;)


the new RUDE thin crashes are perfect, exactly what i want in a cymbal ~ a heavy cymbal that sounds thin :D


black cymbals arent my style, but this is a thing of beauty... (courtesy of WS6freak)

I DO TOO!!!!!

[QUOTE=Cocaberry]What exactly do "plasticy" and "buttery" mean when describing cymbals?[/QUOTE]

Plastic = not enough resonance / ringing but not exactly dead sounding , all you really hear predominantly is the medium to low mids , sounds kinda plastic like

Buttery = just a little above being muddy sounding IMO , kind of sound



Im looking for a big huge silky smooth thin crash sound. I tried paistes and they are glassy and too offensive sounding to be silky

something like an El- Sabor

Drum Phil 04-27-2006 04:19 PM

18" AA El Sabor crash

White Riot! 04-27-2006 04:43 PM

heh maybe Ill ask them to custom up a 20"

Quinto 04-27-2006 06:48 PM

whats a really smooth, buttery ride, no much overtones or ringyness. with
so-so stick definition

White Riot! 04-27-2006 07:30 PM

Evolution Ride

DethChamber999 04-28-2006 11:54 PM

A ride with almost no sustain or shouls i say wash? and good stick definition and almost all ping and a cutting bell?

Seafroggys 04-29-2006 01:02 AM

A Earth RIde?

Quinto 04-29-2006 01:17 AM

to dethchamber:tape an o-ring on a ping ride.that would give you the sound and the ability to have a ride with some wash if you ever want one

DruMMeR_BoY14 04-29-2006 01:29 AM

^^^ wtf...

No, dont tape an O-ring to your ping ride, that has to be the stupidest thing I've ever heard.

I'd say an A earth ride, or maybe a 22" rock ride or something.

aznriceball 04-29-2006 01:45 AM

18" z custom rock crash. kill that sustain mister!

Thats an awesome idea.




If you're a moron and want to crack you're ride.

We_Love_Lime 04-29-2006 07:44 AM

What's Like an Istanbul/Bosphorus/Sabian equivelent to my 16 CIE Vintage Crash?

Buttery and Glorious.

NewMetman 04-29-2006 10:04 AM
