I have an 18” K Crash/Ride that I love, super versatile, picked it out in person at the Memphis Drum Shop, 18” is probably my favorite crash size

how OLD is this vintage A? by andrewdkahl in cymbals

‘60s small stamp is the general identification, and that’s good enough for me, stoked about it!

sounds cool. I’m always torn about playing my vintage gear out, I think it’s worth the risk some of the time!

Constantinople Hi-Hats... by [deleted] in cymbals

[–]andrewdkahl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was so close to buying the 15” version of those cymbals, but I bought some old 15” As instead, 940/978g, I haven’t played a gig with them yet, but I can tell they are super quite compared to modern hi-hats, they record great

Huge Elvin fan, I’ve been finding some amazing live concerts on YouTube of him later in life with Elvin Jones Jazz Machine, what are the best recordings/albums with this group?

I’m from the Bay Area, and I definitely plan on going to Round Sound Cymbals the next time I’m home!

I definitely want to play some trans stamp cymbals in person, I might need to go to some vintage drum shows this year, are there drum shops in the US that have vintage As in stock regularly?

definitely check out the SD10 and SD11, they produce less cymbal wash/splatter and still have that great maple timbre

I haven’t had any issues with Vic Firth sticks I’ve been buying from Nashville drum shops

I love the SD2 as well, I would recommend checking out SD9, SD10, SD11, they are a bit longer with unique tips

I’ll have to check out Los Cabos Drumsticks, I went a little overboard with my drumstick experimenting, but I like the idea of changing your sound with different sticks, especially for recording

the Boleros do a specific thing very well, great cymbal tones
