ya the cymbals look great!!
I hope someone here in the phil can do that. hehehe. Make my B8 into a nice dark sounding ride.
I got the idea from the other posts, if you can make your snare why not customize your own cymbals! hehe.

Can this be done in the phil??

You can dry hammer your cymbals yourself... meaning just put your cymbal on an anvil, get a hammer and start hammering. No heavy machinery needed. Where to hammer is another story though... :)

during my training at sabian..one of thier cymbal specialis t told me that it takes sometimes around 16 people to make one hand hammered cymbal...well maybe thats the reason why it is expensive...and usually daw its the splash cymbal na pinakamahirap gawin..cheers :mrgreen:
