I love the 'crispy' tone of the HH chinas. Yeah I go to the studio quite often. Through trial and error, I realised that the AA and AAX crashes have the sound that I've been looking for. For gigs, it depends on how much setting up time there is. If I only have time for a quick setup, I'll only use the splashes, 1 china and the AAX crash.

I'm actually building up a set of cymbals for an upcoming studio recording. So I'm only lacking a ride and a pair of hats then I'm all good to go. Do post up your collection too!

shred5:
Must see your family portrait soon!

drum_hobbyist:
Woah! Your Meinl collection is amazing. Nice variety of cymbals. That's A LOT of investment there. I can only dream to own as many cymbals as you man!

mel80... just keep the interest alive and the dream will eventually become a reality... just like what happened to me... it is a matter of time... 8)

[joshie]

This is a modest but a truthful situation for me too.

It takes time to build my cymbals to wat they are today and it turns out I'm a "cymbalholic".

It ain't a cheap thing to do case a lot of $$$$ is involved.

I'm getting my cymbals online instead of relying on our local dealers..

I don't mind the xtra money involve as long as I get wat I want.

22" Hand Hammered Power Bell Ride!!! HERE I COME!!

ill post them tmr... today too lazy to take them off the stands and clear my digicam memory space... haha

oya shred5, i dont think ordering online is very wise... a lot of the sites dont cater to sg evn if they say "global" i realised and even if u manage to get them, u still gotta pay bombs for shipping which will make it cheaper if u buy from the local dealers, and u will still get wat u want cuz u can order any cymbal model u want from local dealers without any extra cost... u jus gotta wait for quite long, but i dont think itll be longer than online dealers' delivery anyways...

[u jus gotta wait for quite long, but i dont think itll be longer than online dealers' delivery anyways...

The waiting game is the hardest part for some of us..

 

[nysk]

how fast do online delivers deliver it to u? i noe yamaha takes 2months hah

 

[drum_hobbyist]

All good things must wait... and cymbals are really good things... 8) One tend to appreciate more for the stuff when it takes time to come by... :idea:

2 weeks is the fastest!
