The older Jojo gets, the more he sounds like Christopher Walken.
Swiss-topher Walken
I cannot unhear this 😂😂😂
Holy crap you're right
Oh good its not just me lol
“And I listen to the Tooones” 2:32
Here's a tip: When you spend time in your local drum shop trying out cymbals, buy the cymbal from that shop.
Legendary cymbals + legendary drummer = 🔥❤, thanks for the tips!
first, thanks to Jojo, this video is very useful and informative! Second, I'm not a Sabian guy, but these Anthologies are absolut gorgeous, a class of itself (unfortunately also the price)........
I learned a ton from Jojo's Secret Weapon series, so I love hearing his thoughts on cymbals.
Look at this man, so inspirational!
some things i knew, some new tips that seem very useful (e.g. closing one ear and listening with the opposite side from which you are playing). it seems this may be how microphones would pick them up in certain configurations. remarkably well presented considering English is not his native tongue. thanks Sabian and Jojo.
Excellent presentation. I had heard a few of these tips before, but many were really new and eye-opening.
Gracias Jojo, excelente explicacion, muy util.
Thank you for sharing wisdom! I like the “blindfold” approach. 👏🏼👊🏻
My favorite drum Shop allows me To bring my cymbals To compare them with the cymbal i am searching for… this is the Best Thing Ever when searching for another cymbal for my cymbal Setup. 😉👍
the video I've always wanted to watch
Great demonstration
Thanks a lot!!!
I’ve tried liking the 18” Anthologies but they are just WAYYYY too bright for me, which is weird considering they’re bigger crashes and HHX line.
Soon, drummers in music stores everywhere testing cymbals lol
My favorite is the middle one 😉😁🤫
Thank you Sabian! Thank you Jojo!
…lighting guy.. you’re fired.
Jojo Mayer has the body of a 17 year old boy as a 60 (?) year old. How he has accomplished this is nothing short of extraordinary. Probably 55 years of drumming every day.
Or drugs…lots of drugs
@@rippindrummer666 oh true. Is he known for that? I could see him being into coke or molly but honestly I don’t really feel like he needs that stuff. Dude’s got a lotta energy already.
look at his father… it’s genetic.
420th view 🍁 Great video!
It’s a shame a lot of stores don’t have cymbals in their shop anymore. It’s all online now
Y'all don't get it. He is so knowledgeable and experienced that his opinion is actually 50 cents, each. Like... 25 times more important than any other advice you'll get on the subject.
legend
Jojo is a great drummer...But a sales clerk's nightmare 😉
Every drummer gonna be requesting this demo now. Measuring cymbals stands, nothing nearby, private auditioning room lol
@@FanaticDrummer Exactly! 😆
Yes but they are not paying for it so I don’t care what I have to do to make sure I am buying what I want.
@@rogerbrichacek3140 I was joking 😃
the yoda of drums… (his father vali is also an unparalleled entertainer and an awesome jazz-doublebassplayer)
Some thoughts. Playing cymbals in a music store is always a great experience, although often times there are kids (big and little) in the cymbal room just hitting them because they can. I often buy used equipment, so its hard to really go through the tryout period; thank goodness for CZcams, often I can find someone trying out what it is I am interested in. JJM's comments on stands is true, I'll go one step further: I have yet to find felts that I am satisfied with! Buying used equipment is a WAG, but I have been lucky to have bought instruments that have pleasantly surprised me. Lastly, these Anthology cymbals remind me of Paiste 2oo2's or perhaps something from the Paiste Traditionals family. Bright glassy sound is more in line with the style of music I play.
I always differentiate between the cymbal sounding dry or wet. However, I don’t think that explanation works on the bell. Cool video nonetheless.
My problem with choosing the right Sabian cymbal is they are all so good
469euro for an anthology 18" , gulp!
Meinl Cymbals are really great.
