Just a teaser ...night shots...tomorrow will be taking again! I dare someone to name them all...haha!

 

[jeepers]

Tricky, I could prolly name them all except the two other HHX cymbals. A HHXtreme crash and a 16" Evolution crash? But great great additions to your setup man, really. How much did the Ozone set you back by? Thinking of getting one at the Swee Lee sale.

 

[Frummer]

Haha thanks man. Nah...18" HHX Evo Crash, Hats and Ozone. The ozone costed me *cough*..not during sale...got a good price if ya know what I mean haha. Yah sale coming...lets go together man...alot of stuff in mind...

 

[jeepers]

Dude, super nice stuff. And yes! Let's go together.

 

[Frummer]

Reserve this spot for the day shots...don't think I got time tomorrow. Damn dental.

 

[thebazooka94]

Thought I'd post my pies in here.

 

[Frummer]

Cool stuff! I've been eye-ing the legacy 21" ride and the ozone ride man...

 

[drum_hobbyist]

Latest acquisition of Turkish delights... may be the only ones in the world... period.

Millennium 19" Ride
Zephyros 13" & 15" China
Studio 13" Hi-Hats

Specially customized according to my order. Not found in the catalogue. I am going Turkish from now on as they provide personalize customization (not really an open secret). My next order are sizes that will end with '.5'. eg 13.5" Hi-hats, 16.5" Crash. This is going to be very interesting.

 

[drumsolo86]

Picked up a 12" HHX Evo at the sale! You guys gotten anything?

 

[thebazooka94]

Here are some pictures of my new cymbal!

She's a 17" Istanbul Agop Turk Crash. Quite thin, very dark and dry, definitely much darker than any other 17" crash I've EVER heard. Very organic and trashy sounding. It's also great for riding in jazz applications, as it is quite dry. I got her for a great price off of member drum_hobbyist who was kind enough to wait for me in the lobby ; )

It definitely matches very well with my 21" Legacy ride. I'd love to get a 20" Zildjian Oriental Crash of Doom though. Luckily the Zildjian distributors here in Malaysia are having their year-end sale, IF they have any Crash of Dooms available, maybe I'll pick one up.

 

[drum_hobbyist]

Bazooka, glad that you can appreciate the cymbal... enjoy

 

[jeepers]

Nice score! I was really tempted, but I didn't need another crash! Lovely pictures.

And dude, the Oriental CoDs are great. I'm using mine as a light ride and big crash. Pretty usable bell on mine too. Picked the lighter and lower-pitched of the two when Yamaha (Singapore) first brought them CoDs in. I don't regret the purchase one bit.

 

[thebazooka94]

Damn, it's really tempting. I'm thinking of selling my HHX Evolution ride to get a CoD. There's one selling in KL for 40% off brand new! It's going for SGD267 (RM654)
