Members twosticks Posted August 2, 2007 Members Share Posted August 2, 2007 Howdy, yes give us an update. I have AA regular hats and an older 21" AA dry ride. I also have a HH 18" crash/ride. I don't know about the Rock AA's but I guess they're powerful. I really like the AA's, they're close to Zild. A series. But Sabians are a little more melodic or musical to me. Yes please give us reviews and pics, and try to give us more reviews later down the line. What is a splash pack?? Jenks, OK? Just outside of Tulsa? Born and raised in OKC here. Moved in early 99' Flooding problem doing better? We didn't have hardly any rain here until June. It was why the fires were so bad here. Best of luck dude!

Members jenksdrummer Posted August 2, 2007 Author Members Share Posted August 2, 2007 interested in what 2002s you may be sellin... 16", 17" 18" Crash 22" Ride 14" SoundEdge Hi-hats. Apparently, when I sweat, the protective coating isn't too protective. They'll clean up, but I don't want to go through the effort of having to do it on a weekly basis to keep them looking nice. The have minor dents on the edges where I got a bit too agressive with them, but overall I'd say 9 of 10 condition, outside of the protective coating stuff.

Members jenksdrummer Posted August 2, 2007 Author Members Share Posted August 2, 2007 Selling Paiste's for Sabian's.....Outrageous! A drum shop manager told me that Paiste's are like heroin for drummers. Once you try it, you can't stop. He might be right - but I've loved Sabian for a long time. I only tried Paiste for 1 real reason - I wanted a 16/17/18 crash setup. With Sabian, and the inconsistencies with cast cymbals, my 16 and 17 were closer in pitch than my 17 and 18, and it bothered me. Now I want to go 16/18/20, so there should be more margin for inconsistencies - and if they're way off, the 20 will probably get sent back, and I'll start going different weights. 18 medium / 16 medium, for example.

Members jenksdrummer Posted August 2, 2007 Author Members Share Posted August 2, 2007 Tried carnauba wax? Just a stab... Too late for that! My order is coming in today! I also wanted to go broader instead of 16/17/18 I may do that before selling them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members jenksdrummer Posted August 3, 2007 Author Members Share Posted August 3, 2007 Well, I don't like 'em - sending them back =/ Fu,... THe whole reason I looked at Paiste originally is staring at me againg - my 18" Rock Crash has a dominant tone that is higher than my 16" Rock Crash. The 20" Rock Crash doesn't project all that well, and the Rock Ride is kinda "meh" Damnit. Drum shop guy was right when he said Paiste is the Heroin of Cymbals. But, I figure I can send these back, and spend some money on adding to my cymbal line-up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
