im not doing marketing for istanbul. pero basing from my experience, mas consistent talaga and better sounding si istanbul kesa kay stagg. though mas mura parin ang bnew ni stagg. tiyaga lang sa pag pili.

Yup! Tyaga lang talaga bro! Naks marketing for Istanbul! Haha,19east is now using Istanbul cymbals as well.

Gandang hapon po.

May binili ako na planet z crash na 17" sa jb music neto lang april 2014, that time yun lang kinaya ng budget.
Pero narerealize ko sa thread na mas madami maganda na beginner's crash.

Sa aling brand po kaya maganda i trade in yung planet z? Maganda pa sya makintab na makintab pa and hawak ko pa receipt. Three times pa lang nagamit. Nung ngpaevent ang compny namin sa bkb , bring your own daw kaya napabili ako. Sa practice di ko ginagamit since maganda naman cymbals ng august 8 studio.

Salamat in advance mga sir.

Tama yung mga sumagot sa inquiry mo. They know it too well. Stagg fits with this, you just have to use your ears in deciding what size and model are you going to buy. Tried and tested na saken. From then on, puro stagg cymbals na meron sa kit ko.
Planning for a Band Rehearsal Studio business. Baka may alam kayong space for rent around QC area lang. Please PM me. Thank you.

For more experienced buyers with cash to burn, or who already went through with a lot of GAS, they know where the bang for buck really lies. Wala nang brand loyalty just because it's famous. Bawat use case at sound profile may brand na nag-eexcel at napipili.

case in point #1: Ako.

Used to be an all sabian user. AAX, AA, HH and HHX Only. no other brands allowed.


then, i discovered staggs and istanbuls. fell in love with the SH Mediums (Sounds like vintage Ks). Then I heard the istanbuls. the sultans, the radiants, and the traditionals. wala na. bang for the buck talaga.
hahaha ako binibiyak ko muna yung wetpaks para makita kung may yellow thingy hahahaha

 Ako din! I used to love all a customs! When I got an inspirational pack,I was like,huhhhn?
I sold it all except my k custom ride,ayun k customs,k and a ang cymbals ko,hehe.
If money wasn't a concern and variety,I would go for sabians
Pero if I wasn't oc on brand,I would go for mix of k,sultans,dh,and hhx. :cute:

Question po:

any tips when selecting cymbals by tone, inside the store? I'm planning to upgrade some of my B8s to Staggs or Istanbuls, pero alam ko malaki yung influence ng room sa overall sound nya. Especially the drier cymbals, baka ayos sa showroom tapos ultra dry pala sa bahay.

bring your favorite current cymbal. pagtest mo sa store, pag okay siya with your current cymbal, it'll most probably be good.

ako, isa ko pang testing technique, I make sure na walang walls na malapit sakin para hindi maging exaggerated ang overtones nung cymbal. dun ko malalaman yung closest sound niya in an open environment. then, I test in a corner para malaman ko kung ano magiging tunog sa maliit na bar gigs. lastly, i have the sales guy hit it while im around 5-7 steps away from him para marinig ko kung ano naririnig ng audience ko. and honestly, eto ung mga series na sobrang consistent, near or far:

STAGG SH Crashes and Splashes
STAGG CS
ISTANBUL RADIANT
ISTANBUL SAMATYA
ISTANBUL SULTAN
ISTANBUL TRADITIONAL
SABIAN AAX
SABIAN HHX
ZILDJIAN K Custom (yung luma ah. yung mga bago... meh.)
ZILDJIAN A Custom
ZILDJIAN A

Old stock lang daw sir sa bodega with some very minor/negligible dents and smudges tapos yung snare is ibang model (force 2001) pero same color "as is" binebenta ng store.  Checked the item personally and it's good overall.  Pagnilinis magiging brand new na hitsura.

Bibili kasi ako ng drum set. Hanap ko ay mura pero quality. Ah, mali. Quality at mura, ayun. :)) Hindi ko alam kung saan magsisimula, kung set ba ang dapat bilhin o
isa-isa lang. Kung saan mas makamumura? Ano ba dapat mga tignan? Gusto ko entry-level. Maganda sa recording. Hindi ako maalam kung ano dapat mga tignan, gitara kasi hawak ko. Kaya ayun, patulong naman. :)

The first thing to determine is the budget bro. :cool:
Then we start there. As for entry level na brand new we go around 30k-40k with cymbals
For 2nd hand that same budget would get you a good middle class drums already.
If it's for recording purposes a good kit is better but if you have good mixing skills it wouldn't matter that much
Ang tanung ko sir budget. Then we start there. :-D

Sorry sir,hirap ako makapasok pm kaya di ako makapagpost,bro,I think 2nd drums is the way to go po
Kasi 20k for a brand new kit e mahihirapan kayo kumuha ng good sounding quality kit. Pag my trip kayo kit
Sir I private msg niyo ako to tell you Kung Oks ba yung kit. :-D

Good! I'm from south as well alabang paranaque area ako,if I saw one ad that fits your budget or
Someone referred me a kit that fits your budget I'll inform you.just be patient,ehehe

Sir zwischenzug has a point pero you just have to be sure on the item your buying.
Ikaw nga there's a motto that says walang Malayo sa sure buyer,and it happened to me.
I bought a really good high end kit sa subic! And I'm from paranaque,haha.it was worth it,ehehe
