    I didn't like the result, but I liked the process. And that shop/warehouse is impressive.

      Yes, certainly a fun option for a cymbal you don't like much. Took off too much material off for my taste.

    We’ll done sir!!

    good cymbal to start but love that new sound, lots of work paid off.

  • @jre9571
    @jre9571 Před 2 lety +5

    I think is a brilliant dichotomy of bright over dark with subtle complex tones and a wonderful trashy crash that’s very fast on the decay. Personally, I dig it!

  • @woody4269
    @woody4269 Před 2 lety +5

    That anvil is undoubtedly, the greatest one I've ever seen. How it moves to t hammer beat.
    End result.....gorgeous looking. Very dark sounding. Great vid jr. Cheers🍻

    honestly even though you said it wasn't particularly a 'crashy' ride, there's something about the way it meshed with that particular bass drum on the big crashes at around 15:55 that sounded really special to me

  • @joshuajuaire8757
    @joshuajuaire8757 Před 2 lety +3

    I love the darkness of the sound

  • @familyengineering5591
    @familyengineering5591 Před 2 lety +3

    They made so many hollow logo a's. Would love to lathe down my 22 to a nice wash and wobble. More stick control less ping

    Pingy, ~3000g Zildjian rides are a dime a dozen, and Zildjian will make another 200 this week alone. This is a huge improvement.

  • @datalaforge
    @datalaforge Před 2 lety +3

    This is cool and great job with the audio! There are things I like about the before and the after. I like how before it sizzles and after it’s splashy.

  • @brent3760
    @brent3760 Před 2 lety +1

    Awesome result!

  • @moondrums
    @moondrums Před 2 lety +3

    I've always wanted to do this to a couple of my cymbals. Cool video.

    Great work, I love it.

  • @hughchapman5319

    a much more interesting cymbal than it was 👍

  • @GolddenWaffles
    @GolddenWaffles Před 17 dny +1

    Sounds like a Bliss cymbal!

  • @paranoidpony6861
    @paranoidpony6861 Před 2 lety +2

    That ride looks beautiful! I would love to work on cymbals in the way you did, but all I have is a couple now uneven hammers lol

  • @Duffley
    @Duffley Před 2 lety +5

    The tone isn't too bad, but losing that much weight makes it sound to me like you're playing a crash cymbal now.

  • @tmaddrummer
    @tmaddrummer Před 2 lety +4

    Kind of like some kids..... "they become what they want to become" Great quote Jr about the cymbal making and altering process that works well for some kids too! I really dig the wobble in cymbals, and too many times, it's just not there. I wonder what a rivet or 2 or 3 might add to the flavor? Thanks and Blessings!

  • @myroncohen7619
    @myroncohen7619 Před 2 lety +3

    Vast improvement!!Like your Elvin Influenced feel..May I suggest perhaps to invite an Upright Bassist to join u so we can hear how this would sound..?Higgins used to talk about always bringing along a Bassist when selecting a ride Cymbal to see how the sound works..

  • @davidiracheta111
    @davidiracheta111 Před 2 lety +1

    Wowwwwwwwwwww, a un "ride" lo convertiste en un "crash".
    Que desperdicio!

  • @hugorezende199
    @hugorezende199 Před 2 lety +4

    Its very thin now, way less volume and more crashing possibilities. The bell became too thin for my taste, even being large it lacks that bell note. The washiness its trashier. A tottaly diferent purpose cymbal now.

  • @Joshstix95
    @Joshstix95 Před 10 měsíci +1

    My only concern was the hammering on the bell which completely destroyed the tonality in the bell. If you had left it it would of been a great all purpose ride

  • @gretschludwigdrummer209
    @gretschludwigdrummer209 Před 2 lety +5

    No ear protection when working on the cymbal.....health and safety non existence !

  • @fede170493
    @fede170493 Před 2 lety +1

    I like the cymbal before and after, but i would definitely use both versions for different styles. (The heavy version for Rock and the light one for jazz, or even as a washy/trashy Crash)
    Great job and great video.

  • @jonathanfrieze8497
    @jonathanfrieze8497 Před 2 lety +1

    i love the improvement but i like my cymbals thin i currently have a 3 ride set up 2 22" a zildjian K constanople thin overhammered i scored for 175$ and a sabian monarch i think idk tbh but its a black cymbal real dry love it and a k custom flat top ride that has such incredible deffinition and on the left i have a 4th ride/crash that a 19" 18 or 1900 grams i love it for my left side ride is so much fun i love collecting cymbals i always seem to find the best deals 350$ for a 1920s Ludwig 15"x5 nob snare 30$ for a 1940s leedy marine pearl white 24"i bass drum and bought someones hhx set off ebay for like 450 or less kept the 14" crash and 8" splash but it was funny i wished to myself i wish i would have gotten darker and drier cymbals and someone hit me up to trade the ride and 2 crashes for a 20" meinl thin dry crash and that monarch 22" ride and the hi hats i traded for a killer wood rimmed pdp snare that i absolutly love that goes for 300 so i always find a way to buy flip and end up with nice free stuff to keep for myself im a multi instrumentalist got a double neck 8 pedals 4 knee levers marlen pedal steel guitar to many cellos mandos violins guitars its getting out of hand GAS is a powerful thing to beat especially when you have already beat an addiction to opiates ive redirected that focus and energy to the way i use to be pre hard drugs music is my favorite drug and the best chill pill they make if im stressed ill either play or listen to music and it all goes away

  • @doctersound9630
    @doctersound9630 Před 2 lety +4

    Sounds weird to me… like a “China/Ride” very washy/trashy. Interesting. Well done! 🤘🏻😎🤘🏻

  • @davidjames1684
    @davidjames1684 Před 2 lety

    You turned a nice pingy ride cymbal into an overgrown splash cymbal. Nice going (sarcastic).

  • @noostrings
    @noostrings Před 2 lety +2

    I think it will change in the weeks to come even if it just sits there at "steeps"

    • @stephenmaxwell8226
      @stephenmaxwell8226 Před 2 lety

      Yes that is true! It’s about a week after completing it and it has really opened up, more washy now and really fun to play. Thanks for watching!!

  • @jre9571
    @jre9571 Před 2 lety +1

    What do you guys charge? I have a 60’s A that I’d love to do something similar with.

    • @stephenmaxwell8226
      @stephenmaxwell8226 Před 2 lety

      For just lathing it’s $120, hammering is lots of work so depending on how much we do it would be from $50 to $250 extra

  • @wilberburroughs3133
    @wilberburroughs3133 Před 2 lety

    I think it lost something along the way...maybe the hammering needs some running-in, playing it a lot so the molecules get friendly with one another...could take some time.

  • @geevee7823
    @geevee7823 Před 2 lety +1

    Hate to say it, but it destroyed the cymbal. It kind of sounds like a bottom hihat cymbal.
    Admire your skills and bravery, but the end result is not good. I'm sure there will be an application for it though.

  • @progpower3000
    @progpower3000 Před 2 lety +3

    To my ears, it is way worse than before. But if I had spent all the time I would sure like it 😉

  • @bernymater382
    @bernymater382 Před 2 lety

    Sounds horrible afterwards

  • @scotttucker8127
    @scotttucker8127 Před 2 lety

    Sounds terrible now then before

  • @conradmcdougall3629
    @conradmcdougall3629 Před 2 lety +1

    That cymbal sounds terrible.
