IMO bro worth it naman for a change nadin, basing sa mga napanood ko sa youtube specially meytal cohen 
maganda tunong nung mga cymbals..comparable sa istanbuls na localy available satin.

i think ser Jeff Lima (http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=1668231912) also signed a contract with them..

might be a part of their marketing strategy as well., pejadanza told me about the discount that you will get if you buy thru sir jeff., well if it's part of their marketing they will hit two birds in one stone,.. 

[sandythedrummer]

Kung hindi ka active gigging drummer at inalok ka ng endorsement, malamang marketing strategy yun...

Check nyo si Jeff Lima sa Page....

[heyman]

nakajam na namin ng drummer ko yung si jeff lima. tropa kasi namin si chin ng mymp kaya nakilala namin. im not a drummer sa band pro ok pumalo galeng sa mga fill-ins at syncopado.


soultone ok to. napanood ko din sa youtube kaso si nick menza ang artist (former drummer ng megadeth) napanood ko hehe

[dolfmen]

ser pano ba na sposponsoran? hahaha parang astig yan ah.

[sandythedrummer]

Pwede mag apply or ikaw mismo kunin nila...

Dapat wide ang scope ng popularity mo either ikaw mismo or the band you're playing with..

Example
Otep Kilala sa larangan ng Sessions so personally kilala na sha kahit anung banda samahan nya.
Dindin house name na forever ang Parokya so he got lots of support from JB.

[pauldavid_7]

Yeah, messaged him already anyway, panalo ba to? Kasi parang lumelevel siya sa zildjian sa pagtitingin ko sa youtue

[pejadanza]

they finally arrived.
Gospel Ride 21 "


Gospel Hats 13"


Extreme Crash 17"


Custom Brilliant Crash 16"


FXO 12 17" ( 17" dumating pero ang in order at nabayaran 18" - pending with soultone ung reklamo)


here is my short review on the cymbals after i opened the box and tried playing them for a while. i still have to play them a little bit more longer so i might like them.
Gospel Ride 21- Sounds like the Sabian RBDR. good ping sound slightly higher undertones than my HHX RBDR.
Gospel Hats 13 - the bottom hat is medium weight. ( hindi kasi specified sa website nila) not enough chick sound on the pedal and not enough chick sound on the stick. if i only knew that the gospel hat had a medium weight bottom, i would not buy it. it sounded different from the video. ppfftt!!
Custom Brilliant Crash 16" - regular crash. bright and slightly distorted "HISS" sound. projects well and sonically, the pitch would be somewhere in the A custom Zildjian AAX Sabian models. Response is fast and sustains a clear "HISS".
Extreme Crash 17" - Dark and complex. it is a thicker a crash since it is made for hard hitters. undertones are a little bit obvious in this cymbal. dark sounding and a little dry than the custom brilliant. still with a little distortion on the "HISS" sound.
FXO 12 17" - the holes are a little bit disappointing. compared to many of my OZONE crashes, the circles are not that perfect. the crash is more agitated the the Zildjian EFX or the Sabian Ozones. Straight sounding hiss with less undertones. sonically, the pitch would be near an AAX sabian.

5 cymbals cost 72,000 plus shipment of 9,000 (US - PH) total of 81,000
Verdict: The sound of the cymbals is still unique compared to the bigger brands. i think i got the wrong hats. tried placing a 13" evo bottom hat and the sound was very nice. for the price of the cymbals, i think i would think twice if i would buy additional pies.

[sandythedrummer]

Kapatid you sounded dissatisfied. Am I right??

81,000 

[pejadanza]

81,000 

maybe not the sound i was looking for master sands and i was expecting too much from it. il try to test some istanbuls when i get some money and compare them both. istanbuls have better pricing though. the crashes are good! the ride is somewhere near my RBDR. the hi hat was my big mistake. maybe the Custom series lines could have been better sounding in my ears. but i'm not willing to spend another 16k for a test.  (81,000/5= 16,200/cymbal average)

maybe my ears are used to hearing my HHX's. i'm going to spend more time on the cymbals tomorrow and try gigging it.
