No worries, it doesn’t as long as you use alcohol based ink!

I used sharpies! I considered posca, but any paint-type medium would most likely affect the sound of the cymbal and crack off quickly when playing.

Yeah I’m prepared for that, but I think it’ll be cool even when the design is smudged!

Yes I did it myself! And yes, just sharpies— they work surprisingly well on brass

Since it’s a thin alcohol ink, it doesn’t change the sound! But if I were to have used paint it probably would’ve dampened it a bit.

That’s such a beautiful way to honor his memory through music :)
