Members Proto48Patrick Posted August 9, 2013 Members Share Posted August 9, 2013 I just picked up a Paiste 2002 ride. I like the cymbal as a hvy crash, but..... its just a hair too gongy. I like it and want to keep it so I was wondering if I put some rivits into it, if that would kill the gong maybe but not kill the overall crash. help?fyi; I use 2 20" rude heavy rides, aTwenty ride as a crash (great!) and alpha 18 crashes. Normally play a mix of thrash metal and tech/speed metal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SYMBOLIC Posted August 9, 2013 Members Share Posted August 9, 2013 I don't think rivits would fix the gonginess. I think that's more due to the thickness (and I think the shape of the bow?) of the cymbal. You could try some tape/moon gel/whatever stays put to dampen it. Try putting it towards the bell and it may kill the gonginess. I use two rides too (22" AAX Metal rides). Are you a Gene Hoglan fan? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
