Any thoughts on the K custom hybrid crashes, anyone?

I know pete just got one, I presume they sound Godly!.!


-Ant-

I have a 20" Zildjian A Ping Ride right now. I want a ride I can crash yet still be able to ride on. I want it to have a nice bell. And when I crash on it, not to gongy. Not to washy. But has enough wash.

Zildjian A sweet ride
Sabian AA medium ride

Is the Sweet Ride ridable though? I heard it wasn't...

ive played it. it has some wash when riding but thats pretty much whats gonna happen if you want a crashable ride that isnt gongy.

But that has a terrible bell.

I rather like the Vault Artisan medium ride.

true the bell is quite small on it. i really wanna try a jojo fierce ride.

I personally dont like crashing rides :-/ But thats just me.

me either. if you wanna crash something maybe buy a crash...just maybe?
=D

It doesn't have all that much stick definition, so fast patterns don't cut through too well.

Sounds good as a crash though. I'm probably going to get myself a new ride, and use the sweet ride as a crash.

My thoughts exactly.

Plus i can have it low and access all areas of it if i dont wanna crash it.

Thse things are dry with a capital dry.

keep that Pinger though. I have the 22" and its a beast!

I was just playing again and I think I will keep it and just go for a larger crash.

...so kinda the opposite of the sweet ride right?


Btw how much wash does the ping ride have? I find with most rides you can give it a bit of stick edge to increase the wash even if you don't fully crash it.

IDK but try a really large crash/ride maybe? Thought that might be even more sweet-ride-y than the sweet ride, if you get what I mean.

on its own, the ping ride will sound like it has a lot of wash to it...

add in the rest of the group playing, and that wash disapears. all stick on it from there on

even if you try to crashride it?

Check out the K Custom Hybrid ride or the Sabian Paragon ride for crash and stick defininition.

crash a paragon? You nuts

Anybody know what Sabian Hi-Hats these are?

omg blasphemy from zildjian lol

Apparently the bloke from audioslave uses a 22" 2002 ride of some type on the first 2 of their albums, if you wanna know what one might sound like in a band.

might be wrong on taht one tho:S

2002's rule

I don't know if anyone has made any suggestions for this earlier because I haven't read the thread, but I guess I'm looking for a cymbal that could be used for the most part like Jon Theodore's stack of broken cymbals. I can't afford to bust up older cymbals, so I'm going to be selling my china and I'd like to find something similar to that. and I'm sorry if a bunch of people have asked about this or if people are tired of talking about it. I just like the sound of it.

Who's he?

You could just by some cheap a[I]s[/I]s wuhans and stack them?

13" HH Regular's

He's the old drummer of The Mars Volta.

If nothing else works out, I'll probably end up doing something like that.

But does anybody else have any suggestions?

I'm not sure what it sounds like, but maybe find/buy some old sheet metal and deform it with the combination of chinas?

Just buy an 8" B8 splash and mount it upside down in a 14" wuhan china.





or something.

Thanks. I might as well just try out both of those

Anyone else with any suggestions feel free.

i have 2 wuhan trad splashes used as aux hats and they are pretty trashy. you might wanna stack them so they hit eachother or just buy an aux mount and have them permanately half open half closed.

I'm assuming his broken stack sounds kind of nasty, so just get some cheap chinas/splashes and stack them I would've though.

I'm buying a splash soon. I need one that is cutting enough for playing rock and metal. Preferably a "10 or a "12, and by Zildjian or Sabian. My local store has only those two brands. Thanks.

10" Aax?

sup guys...I love my Ping ride, but its too washy for me.

Im looking for a really dry ride, with very minimal wash, but a warm wash at that. I want it to have a nice bell on it too.

Just throw ideas at me.

K Custom Dry?

DAVEN -

A Custom splash.

I'll check those two out, thanks guys.
