@billiballo97

[betweenthelinesofage]

DO you have the ride mounted on the bass drum? Thanks

[ludwigtrap]

@betweenthelinesofage Yes

[roflboca]

wow that bell freaking SINGS.

gimme your cymbals?

[CGDrummer96]

nothing like a drum kit in the living room ;)

[basje224]

should i go for 15'' 2002 medium hi hats or sound edges?

my other cymbals are a 2002 24'' crash and a 20'' 2002 medium crash.

im a big fan of bonzo's and dave grohls work, but i'm also looking for cymbals i can use in different styles.

[Gargiuloth2]

This video is so peaceful. All sounds just SO good, both the kit and the player. Kudos!

[kashmir33]

They sound amazing!!

[jesseroman3]

Great for playing loud rock!

[chrisjtt509]

i like your banjo

[dtigers27]

@ludwigtrap

And what does that mean exactly? Sorry, I'm a newbie and I'm thinking about getting the GB hats. I'm concerned about breaking them though! I don't bash my cymbals but I don't have a womanly touch either ;)

[ludwigtrap]

@dtigers27

If you're overly concerned about breaking the GB h/h then I'd consider the 2002.

Soundwise the the GB are "sloppier" or have more wash and less chik than the 2002.

[dtigers27]

Just out of curiosity, why didn't you go with the 15" Giant beat hats?

[ludwigtrap]

@dtigers27

The Giant Beat Hi-Hats were too thin for my taste plus I"m a big fan of the sound edge.

[dtigers27]

Very cool. Good job, sir!

[BleechDrummer]

I have a 24" Giant Beat and it cracked......but it was within a year of when I purchased it, so it was covered. Paiste put up a fight about even sending me another one.

[smeh69]

Giant Beats kick ass. Those are some real cymbals.

[audiophile55]

Unbelievable! These are just phenomenal sounding cymbals.  Nothing can beat a Paiste. NOTHING! Bright. Crisp. Loud. Excellent sustain. I LOVE Paiste!

[grajdrums]

Hello again. Two questions - first, are these the reissued Giant Beats or the vintage? Second, do you think they crack easily, because I'm a pretty heavy player, and I'm thinking whether to buy these or to go for the 2002's. Much appreciated.

[ludwigtrap]

@grajdrums - These are reissues and they are fairly thin. The Giant Beat HH were so thin that they would detune if you really laid your foot into them. That's why I got the 2002 HH.

The rest of the Giant Beat cymbals have a ton of wash so if you beat the hell out of the 24" ride it really starts ringing.

So if you're a banger and worried about cracking them or want to retain more ping and stick definition then the 2002's are probably your best bet.

Both series sound amazing.

[grajdrums]

@ludwigtrap Thanks, and sorry for sending that message - the comment didn't appear at first. Anyways, I'll conisder before buying now, thank you again.

[crlaw75]

Giant Beats are amazing cymbals, it just that they are made to Bonham sizes.

[grajdrums]

Do you always play light like this? If you like Bonham, you should be beating the hell out of these.

[ludwigtrap]

This is a cymbal demo not a stroke fest.

Listen to Rain Song; brushes!

[grajdrums]

Stroke fest? :D

I'm not saying that Bonham didn't or couldn't play light, but face it, his main style was really hard.

[ludwigtrap]

Fair enough, my point is that Bonham had finesse that belies his Cro-Magnon man stereotype and that this video is about cymbal tone, not technique.

[westhofer8]

i have a ride that sounds awfully similiar to one of the giant beats: a bosphorus 20" new orleans ride. i might just have to get the giant beat ride =)

[fs04pro]

1:42 charlie from rhcp?

[SiddhartaLysander]

I know it would probably seem a little bit out of topic...but...are you using ambassador or emperor?

[ludwigtrap]

Those are Ambassadors.

[Sousleek]

I'll never find sounds like this in Sabian or Zildjian cymbals.

Awesome kit!

[sticksbass]

@Sousleek please.

[pilotdrummer95]

Very nice tight drumming.

Nothing too fancy or complex but still has that same effect.

Loving that funk/rock/pop groove from 1:42 onwards had a great feel to it.

Also love the 2002 soundedge hi-hats. Hopefully when I get a new drums kit I'll be getting some decent cymbals!

Thanks pd95 :)

[eGuitar635]

bonham used a ludwig?

[DrummerGS]

Yes. Maple, stainless steal and acrylic vistalite Ludwigs.

[ZepSet1992]

Sound's very very very very nice!!!

[MrLeddick]

well i bought a 24 ride id did not hold up tothe bonham bell infact after obout a few times playing i noticed small indentures around the bell also way to washy as apposed to the 2002

[arthurjones2]

i want to eat them

[BrainDamage769]

Paiste's are without a doubt the best and most musical cymbals available.

I'm just wondering whether to get the Bonham Giant Beat set up, or a similar Twenty set up.

[alexthedrumma1]

sounds amaaazing i want those hihatss haha

[TheDirectorofFoo]

Old school baby!

[DrummerGS]

The bell on that Giant Beat ride sound AWESOME.

[SUNNYD3322]

Fantastic!

[joelitoooo]

love your snare drum

[rxx666]

excellent sound!

[NewDarkAges13]

im thinking of going with paiste, i really adore the 2002 and the signature series...

i played my friends set, he has a shitload of paiste "Twenty"'s

[drumrnva]

Nice. I have the 14" GB hats, and I just love them. I'd love to have the entire GB set.

[robcarey]

18" Giant Beat is the best crash Paiste has ever made.

[BR177]

Paiste cymbals are the best ever, you can not go other brand if you choose them by ear.

[martinlentini]

could you describe your cymbal set? ?

[LAY1194]

VERY GOOD SOUND

[LAY1194]

NOT A BAD VIDEO

[TechnicalEvaluation]

the cymbals *and* the drums sound fantastic!

[ghostdrummerjon]

Love the cymbals. Are those hats the old black labels or new red labels?

[ludwigtrap]

Red label

[westernrebel89]

what size are your cymbals?

[ludwigtrap]

24, 20, 18 & 15

[audiophile55]

That's Pasite. NOTHING sounds better!

[rushistheawesomest]

I'm guessing the GBs are the reissues? They don't sound anything like the real GBs from the 60s

[shanman14]

wow, thanks!! these cymbols sound soooooooo good,i want them soo bad!!

[AllThatZZTop]

when did you get these and how much did they cost? i would love to have that set up, they sound great, you have good taste, also with those ludwigs.

[plopenstien]

i want your ride. plus that was a nice rhythm you had going on the ride, hats and snare rim

[jm1072]

What kind of banjo is that in the background?

[ludwigtrap]

That's the old Gibson RB-250 used in my earlier videos.

[DEFkon001]

Sounds nice to me. Thanks for the demo. Makes me fantasize about getting into drums but I think the family would evict me. I'll have to make do with improvised percussion instruments.
