No, I was not at Swee Lee.

And no, the HHXtreme was not my first HHX cymbal. Note the HHX Evolution splash haha.

Mel... start growing the Meinl family so the 16" Filter China won't be so lonely...

 

[mel80]

DH:
I will, as soon as I'm done with my Sabian family lol. Still lacking a pair of hats for it. Probably Vault or HHX hats.

 

[mel80]

Latest purchase:

HHX 14" Groove Hats

Awesome sizzling hats. Love it!

The now complete (until I start GAS-ing again lol) Sabian family portrait:

From left to right, top row:
AAX 16" Ozone Crash
AA 16" Thin Crash
Handhammered 16" Thin Chinese
Handhammered 18" Chinese
HHXtreme 16" Crash
AA 22" Rock Ride

bottom row:
HHX 14" Groove Hats
AAX 14" Crash
Prosonix 8" Splash
HHX 7" Evolution Splash
Handhammered 6" Splash

And finally, the Sabian family with the 'bastard child', Meinl 16" Generation X Filter Chinese with added screws.

The years of slowly saving and putting aside money to purchase the cymbals piece by piece has finally paid off. A complete cymbal-family that compliments well with one another.

So sad! Why you call the Ah Lang gift "bastard child"? I want a "child" by Ah Lang also don't have okay! :mrgreen:

And very, very, very nice Groove Hats! Sizzle!

Meinl is of a 'different breed' mah

Oh is the meinl cymbal part of Johnny Rabb signature line? Cool fusion stuff it be.

My cymbals (and set)

They quite bad, the only one I'm thinking of keeping is the Amun 8" Splash

The rest are 14" Hihat, 16" Crash, 20" Ride, all Headliner Meinl FX9

Plus one paiste 18" Crash/Ride.

I'm going to need jazz hats, a dark crash, and a better ride to replace.

And still haven't gotten a mini china! Sigh.

Nope. It's a Thomas Lang signature line

Nice clean setup you have there btw
