We play in a small basement and often my zbt's overpower the mix. We play alternative rock, not that loud. Would sultans be quiet enough or at least quieter than my zbt's? Planning on buying a set. Thanks.

That will be Perfect sir. I guarantee it!

Thanks. My only concern is the hats are still 14s. Picking between 12s or 13s a mastersounds 2nd hand or brand new sultans. What do you guys think?

Bro usually hat's sizes only corresponds to the desired chick sound. Pero warmth sa 14 paren. Hindi na volume ang issue.
Check out my new recorded clips from samatyas and Sultans.

Thanks for clarifying. So size does not determine volume, which is my greatest concern now?

somehow it will depend on how you play your hats. Both 13 and 14 if played in same setting will have almost same volume. That's in context of volume. Pero sonically the 13 will sound higher in pitch compared to the 14 which will be washier and warmer. That's why most funk and rnb drummers prefer 13's to get faster response and quicker "chick" sound. 14 will be a good all arounder if you wanna get the best of both worlds the two sizes can offer.

If i were you. Try borrowing 13 inchers and try it para sure. It all boils down to your preference. Hindi naman kasi hats ang madalas malakas eh, crash and ride. Sorry ang gulo kona. Hehe. Gets mo?

Thanks. Tried some 12s and 13s last night. I think i am fine with 14s. Seriously considering buying sultans today if only someone buys my dbl peds. Need to find out if there are sultans available at lazer market market, and i need to decide if i am getting the whole set vs hats lang. Tnx.

Here what i think

If you like a mixed istanbul cymbals get this
Hats: Sultan
Crash:samatya 16"
secondary: radiant
Ride: samatya

Promise i love this combination

may per piece ba na binebentang istanbuls??

sandythedrummer · « **Reply #360 on:** July 31, 2011, 05:14:06 PM »

Meron sila per piece. Kaso mas makakatipid ka kung set kukunin mo.

Samatya set ay 16,500 lang

if per piece(refer sa previous post for individual prices)
ride mga 7k+
crash 5k+
Hats 8k+
Lalabas aabutin ka mga 20k+

So what i do, I'd buy thr whole set then sell the 16" crash kasi m
as type ko character ng mga 18's than smaller crashes.

Well that's for me lang.

About availability ng stocks. I'm takling pa sa mga Lazer Authorities how to improve in this area.

Btw ilang tulog na lang, balita ko may matinding news ang Lazer about Istanbul Mehmet.
Malapit na hehehe

Just purchased sultan hats... Amazing!
Wanted to buy a sultan set but lazer market market did not have one. Infact it was the last sultan cymbals.
I loved the schick and the tone, and how it was quiet enough not to overpower my bandmates in our basement.
Super recomended.
Now, where can i get a good crash?
Thanks by the way to all those who convinced me.

sandythedrummer · « **Reply #362 on:** July 31, 2011, 11:54:49 PM »

Kapatid na chipstah! Congrats! Ganda nyan! Post pics naman jan!

I highly recomend 18 inch sultan or samatya. 6400 ata sha. Check mo.

godisjudge · « **Reply #363 on:** August 01, 2011, 09:35:19 AM »

Congrats Chipstah.

Lazer SM North Edsa may 2 sets ng Samatya. Yung 14 hats 18 crash and then whole set.

Chipstah · « **Reply #366 on:** August 01, 2011, 10:54:06 PM »

I actually have a radient 10" splash that i love, but rarely use. I can sell it with tue mini splash arm if any one is interested. Just pm me.
On the crash and ride, too bad lazer mkt mkt did not have stock. Found out that its complicated for them to ask for stock from a different store, unlike jb who can easily do it.
So i am willing tO buy 2nd hand.

sandythedrummer · « **Reply #367 on:** August 01, 2011, 11:33:16 PM »

I called the authorities this morning. They'll do something about it na.

Pics naman jan sir!!! Hehehe
