12" Wuhan Splash is a good cymbal, I own it....its splashy :)

wich would you prefer an AA rock ride 24" or and AA Medium ride 24"??? and why

[QUOTE=chewaz]wich would you prefer an AA rock ride 24" or and AA Medium ride 24"??? and why[/QUOTE]

AA Medium ride. I think it would be more versatile than a rock ride.

mmm thanks i looooove big rides, but there is no sample of it on the sabian's site, is it like the Avedis medium ride 24"???

I don't have the money to buy it yet, but I'll ask anyway.

I'm looking (or will at some point) for a china that is trashy, dark and has short sustain, but still has that oriental sound to it. Preferably Sabian (brand whore).

would a AAXplosian crash and AA medium crash sound good together?

Thanks man.

[QUOTE=Dookie56]would a AAXplosian crash and AA medium crash sound good together?[/QUOTE]

probably. AAX and AA go well together. the plosion goes well with the AAX stage. same with the AA medium.

Here's what I'm thinking of buying:


a seires zildjian 8" [B]OR[/B] 10" splash
sabian hhx 17" stage crash
some cymbal arm/clamp to hold the splash...

Comments on these? I also could use suggestions on an arm/clamp and splash size.

just buy a gibraltar arm and clamp for the splash. as for the HHX stage crashes....those are nice cymbals. I would probably get that in an 18inch but the 17s are good sizes too.

I'm confused, MF and samash doesn't have the 17" stage crash. =(

can i get a price check on this cymbal?

**looks at prices and mouth drops**

is that 230 USD for a 17"?? oh mother... I only have 260 USD at the moment... not to mention the prices on MF and samash are lower... I think I should buy the crash for now.

Sorry I had to bring you the bad news.

I'm looking for some powerful sounding cymbals which will stand up to live playing. I play mainly metal so I was thinking Sabian AAX Metal cymbals. What do you think?

ur in America, go look on massmusic, 17''s are 159, 18''s are 171

i'm looking for a decently priced 18" crash/ride for use with rock in general.(ie:rock,punk,metal)

no problem, i'm hoping if i remind enough ppl about massmusic then andy will love me and give me free stuff.

[QUOTE=Mike]Thanks man.[/QUOTE]

No problem.

basicly im looking for a new ride and crash and possibly hi-hats aswell, i need them to be cheap and im a begginer but at the mo i only have second hand arbiter flats hi-hats and a crash/ride :upset: and also i may get a splash or something if i have enough money, i sort of need different cymbal sounds and uses explained before i can decide

I reccomend Sabian Pro Sonix.

i was recomended those before i cant find any anywhere on the web to have a look

Whatever you do, stay away from zildjian ZBT/ZXT/Planet Z. They're overpriced and generally a rip off. If you cant find pro sonix look into Sabian B8s

i found these [url]http://www.wwbw.com/Wuhan-S-Series-Cymbal-pack-i81573.music[/url]
does that look like a good bet? unfortuneately i am in the UK and havnt a clue about postage and packaging how much would you say its likely to be? a lot probably knowing my luck :(

Yeah it'll be pretty expensive. Wuhans are good but hard to find over here.

Heres some to check out

i think i might go for the pro sonix and then buy a splash to go with them has anyone got the pro sonix set and can give me an idea of quality? will they be a good investment by the time im an experienced drummer?
