I visited the Yupangco Showroom the other day, and thanks again to JP, he let me try out some of his new cymbals in stock.

I'm able to try some of the new HHX Legacy cymbals. The recent Modern Drummer review is right; these cymbals are perfect for acoustic jazz settings. These cymbals are not for everybody though; its sounds are of acquired taste, and I don't think it could be that effective for amplified settings. The dark, complex, trashy qualities that Dave Weckl and Sabian are talking about is indeed present. Pinong-pino and expressive ang tunog. The O-Zone Ride is one of the most intriguing ride cymbals that I've ever tried, and it's also a pretty good conversation piece, with its 5 O-Zone holes.

I also got to try the AA Raw Bell Dry Ride. I like the bell sound. It's very clear and defined. You don't need to work so hard in order to get it sounding good. I think this ride is versatile enough to work on most musical situations.

I also tried the AA China Splashes. These cymbals look like splashes which were intentionally inverted hehe! I also like this reinforcement ring that Sabian put on its holes, which I find thoughtful. Thanks to that, there's no need to worry so much about hairline cracks from the hole. As its name suggests, it's a combination splash-china sound. Prog-rockers will find these china splashes very useful.

About that 13-year old kid who has those nice high-end cymbals... How lucky! A lot of local pros don't even have that kind of cymbal setup. Another example of how unfair life can be hahaha!

I was able to try the Vicpad9 practice pad. Despite its unorthodox shape, I enjoyed playing on it. The two different pads respond well, and the non-skid base is effective. And it's light and portable! Now I'm having second thoughts about my 12" RealFeel practice pad. If ever, kasalanan mo nanaman ito JP haha!!

hi guys! hope you're enjoying the holidays

SIR JP gave me this "assignment" (in short inutusan ako ni bossing Jp hehe) of making our 2007 order forecast for Pearl/ Sabian/Vic Firth products... we will be putting out more signature snare drums and a very exciting new series of drumsets from Pearl and more HHX cymbals..

what do you guys suggest or recommend that we put out in the market? this would be very helpful and very much appreciated..

drumster · « **Reply #121 on:** December 28, 2006, 06:27:20 PM »

Hi bea!

Our suggestions, recommendations and "wish lists" will be limited to Pearl, Sabian, and Vic Firth products, right?

porksoda · « **Reply #122 on:** December 28, 2006, 06:29:01 PM »

yup, yun ang assignment ko

drumster · « **Reply #123 on:** December 28, 2006, 06:34:48 PM »

Okay I'll start...

For Pearl... I hope you can ship in some Eliminator Hi-Hat Stands. And also, a few Eliminator spare parts (I lost one allenhead screw from my traction plate). And of course, the Jordison snare drum. I'm sure JP already made a mental note regarding these (I already told him about these before hehe!).

For Sabian... Yes, more HHX cymbals!

For Vic Firth... I wanna try out their Tala Wands.

lil.drummerboy · « **Reply #124 on:** December 28, 2006, 06:56:57 PM »

ganun din sakin kung meron available na spare parts ng elims meron na kasi ako bago lang. nung nag tanong ako sa jb wala daw cla eh..
