    PST 10/12 splash stack overtones

    Hi all, Hope you're good. I recently got a PST 10/12 splash stack and have been mucking around with it. I'm hearing a (quite aggressive) high overtone near the end of the sound. It is loud enough for me to not use these, but I'm sure I'm setting them up wrong. I use Tama stands, and seem to...

    Desert Island Cymbal Pack

    After putting down the sticks and selling my last kit (Yamaha Recording Custom) 35-years ago, I'm building a new drum kit. I've decided on the shell pack (20" BD/10-12-14 toms) and I'm unlikely to play gigs or in the studio, but as a successful audio engineer here in Nashville, I know what good...

    Paiste Dixie

    Hello, I would like to know if this Dixie serie is worth something in term of sound and money. Someone around is selling HiHats for 100bucks, is worth it ? I didn't find many information. I just heard it was for beginner players during the 60's and 70's. Does any one play it ? Thanks !

    Question for Giant Beat owners…

    I recently bought a used reissue Paiste GB 20” multi. Is it just me or is the color on this off? It looks much more, well coppery than most other Giant beats I’ve seen. Anyone ever seen one like this or know what’s going on? Sounds great, just curious.

    Branching out (Cymbal OCD trigger warning)

    After years of not posting here, I’m back. And years of playing only Zildjian, I started getting a hankering to try some Paiste cymbals. I just picked up this used Giant Beat Multi 20” and a new PST7 19” thin crash. Man, do they all look out of place together like that. 🤣. Not sure how well...

    Paiste cymbal identification please

    Hello, About a year ago I acquired a Paiste cymbal that I have only recently started questioning the model/line and age of. There is no stamp or serial, the only markings are printed. It reads " EXTRA THIN 11" " and "SWISS-MADE". Any idea what this is? It has kind of a trashy sound for a...
