Zildjian A Custom Rezo Crash 20" - superapollo's review
12 months ago, I had no idea how special this cymbal was. Getting to know the Zildjian 20 inch Rezo is like falling in love with your best friend, it's amazing. I get behind her with full force, or I…
Zildjian A Custom Fast Crash 18" - superapollo's review
When choosing to take the small leaps in the spacing of my crash sizes, going from 15 to 18 was a choice I am very happy with. Basically, one year in I have no intent in changing the solitiy of favor…
Zildjian A Custom Fast Crash 14" - superapollo's review
The first time 12 months ago, I came quick off a drum roll and laid a little crash from this bad boy at the end, I fell in love. Perfect for those moments of short lived heightened sound during a jam…
Zildjian A Custom Sizzle Ride 20" - superapollo's review
I've had my Zildjian cymbals since I began putting together my set 12 months ago. This ride gives me everything I need in a "go to" cymbal which I keep to my right. When you find the sweet …
Sabian Xs20 Performance Set - FateFelledVictim's review
The Sabian XS20 cymbals are what I played on when I auditioned for my band, and these cymbals have a horrible tone. I played with the band and cymbals for about 2 weeks, and eventually brought my Zil…
Zildjian Z Custom Medium Crash 16" - FateFelledVictim's review
This is the cymbal that is made for metal, rock, or anything that needs a lot of drive. These cymbals cut through the mix with a very bright, focused attack. I have two Z Customs in my set, along wit…
Zildjian Z Custom Rock Crash 17'' - FateFelledVictim's review
The Z Custom 17” Rock Crash is one of the most versatile cymbals in the Z Custom cymbal line. The large, popped up bell allows the cymbal to be a projecting crash, while holding on to an overall clea…
Zildjian A New Beat HiHat 14" - FateFelledVictim's review
On a starting note I have to say that the Zildjian A Series New Beat hihats are some of the most popular hihat cymbals in the drumming world. I owned a set when I first started and got rid of them ab…
Zildjian A Custom Medium Crash 18'' - FateFelledVictim's review
This cymbal is a great addition to any drummers arsenal. The cymbal does not have to be beat on to explode with an array of colors and sounds. The cymbal has a large amount of wash, yet still holds o…
Paiste Signature Reflector Heavy Full Crash 19'' - Audiofanzine FR's review
(Originally written by poupaja/translated from Audiofanzine FR) Recently launched model. The sound is a mix of a Full crash and a Power crash with a bright finish (reflector). Pros: - Perfectly pure…
Zildjian ZHT Splash 10'' - FateFelledVictim's review
The ZHT line by Zildjian is one of the most impressive sheet cymbal lines in my opinion. They dominate over the other competitors brands such as the Paiste’s and Sabian’s in tone and durability. I pl…
Zildjian ZBT Crash 16'' - FateFelledVictim's review
I had one of the 16” Zildjian ZBT cymbals when I first started playing drums and at the time it was good. The sound of these are actually half way decent. The cymbal holds a full tone for a nice amou…
Sabian AA Rock Hats 14'' - FateFelledVictim's review
These were my very first Sabian cymbals to ever have gone in my set up, and they will probably be the last. I have used many Zildjian and Paiste’s before trying this model, and they weren’t the worst…
Zildjian A China High 20" - BGugino's review
Now I’ve never owned one of the Zildjian China Boy Highs, but I’ve definitely played on one countless times at my private drum lesson teacher’s house. He’s had this cymbal since I met him 3 years ago…
Zildjian Avedis Ping Ride 20" - BGugino's review
After house-sitting for one of my drum teachers, instead of getting paid, he gave me his 20” Zildjian Ping Ride. I have been playing it for about 1 or 2 months now and don’t plan on getting any other…
Zildjian A Quick Beat HiHat 14" - BGugino's review
I am currently using the Zildjian A series Quick-beat Hi-Hats and I love them. I got them on sale from another website, but if I had to make the decision to get them again at full price, it would be …
Zildjian ZBT Pro 4 Box Set - docdrum1225's review
The Zildjian ZBT 4 Pro Pack is a great investment for the young or even the old drummer. The pack includes a 16” crash, 14” hi-hats, and a 20” ride. Sure the cymbals aren’t the best you can get, but …
Zildjian A New Beat HiHat 13" - docdrum1225's review
I purchased a pair of 13” Zildjian A series New Beat Hi-Hats in the March of 2008. I was looking for a good “back-up” pair of hi-hats since I had two kits and it made sense to have two pairs so I cou…
Zildjian Scimitar Crash 16" - BGugino's review
I bought my Zildjian Bronze scimitar crash at a garage sale for $20; and let me tell you, I think I over-paid. This cymbal is by far the worst cymbal I’ve ever heard. Not to mention the looks of the …
Zildjian A Medium Crash 18'' - BGugino's review
I was out at my local drum shop the other day and I decided to pick up one of these cymbals. I was impressed that the price was only a little over $200. And being that it was from one of the biggest …
Sabian Paragon Ride 22" - goodbyebluesky's review
I've been on a search for the perfect ride, and I think I found it. Problem is- I can't afford it, more on that later. Sabian's Paragon cymbals are made in Canada, just the man behind these cymbals; …
Zildjian A Custom Ping Ride 20'' - goodbyebluesky's review
I used this 20" Ping Ride from the A Custom line for a short while. I'm not typically a fan of ping rides or dry rides since I've come to like (and expect) a good wash underneath the ever presen…
Zildjian A Custom Fast Crash 18" - goodbyebluesky's review
Unlike my unfavorable review of the 16" Fast Crash from this series; the A Customs- I really like the A Custom's 18" Fast Crash. What I like most about the A Custom line-up is their versati…
Zildjian A Custom Fast Crash 16" - goodbyebluesky's review
I did not use this cymbal long, as it just didn't jive with my tastes and expectations. It might for you, though. The 16" Fast Crash is pretty typical and in line with the rest of the A Custom s…
Zildjian K Custom Dark Ride 20'' - goodbyebluesky's review
I've used this cymbal off and on for a while now. Everything from the K Custom series are well-made cymbals and sound wise are a cut above your average cymbal, but the K Custom Dry Ride stands out as…
