Cymbal Setup
The main make and mark of cymbal I use is Paiste 2002. Starting with the Hats, we have the legendary
15" Soundege hats. The ride is a 20" Paiste 505 Heavy. I have recently picked up an old 2002 ride, but the
definition from the 505 keeps it's place in the line up.
Crashes are all 2002. The 16" black label is about 28/29 years old and considering the bashing
it's taken over the years, it's longevity is a credit to Mr Paiste.
The versatile red label 18" medium is next and I love this one. Crash/Ride, always sounds sweet.
The crash set is finsihed off by the 20" red label crash, it has a mighty swell.
The chinas have always been a sound I like, in moderation possibly. I have a 20" black label 2002 china on my left, and a trashy 16" diamond wuhan on my right. I have a set of splashes that consist of a Sabian, 8" and Meinl 10" on the cymbal stacker, just above the hats. Over above the rack toms I have the paiste 2002, 12" splash.
