Chad Smith - Cymbal Setup

[reybarcam]

What is his hit hats ?

[cowdell63]

Is he drunk?

[JIMBOX12X]

@cowdell63 thats what think to

[KFGNOE]

0:09 fuck you chad smith

[XxStrongDrums1996xX]

@KFGNOE ?

[RockDrummah96]

lol, my favorite part is 'look at the craftsmanship!'

[kessingerjohnny]

am I the only one who finds it funny that he has no clue how big his cymbals are or even what line they are? haha

[iCe1984zz]

@kessingerjohnny Yeah, looks like he was given a set of cymbals and didn't bother haha. On the other side, he might just lost track over all the cymbals he had over the years and just picked out the ones he liked (without remembering which one). Anyway, still it's funny. Shouldn't try that with your GF though: "What's her name?"

"Don't know, she doesn't have a necklace with her name on it" :P

[TomBDrums]

0:09 he bent the splash cymbal! lol :P

[13RuffRyder]

lmao i love the ricky bobby hat XD

[slash18124]

chad smith and will ferrel have to be twins.....chad lived with there dad and has the last name smith....will lived with his mom and has the last name ferrel......this is my theory:D thumbs up if u agree!!!

[elmadrigal32]

He looks like Will Ferrel and Is wearing a Ricky Bobby Number 26 Wonder Bead Hat LMFAO :D Chad Smith Great humor Awesome Drummer. Hes THE SHIT :D

[Nougat029]

HE IS WEARING A RICKY BOBBY CAP, (the guy from talladega nights played by will ferrell for those of you that didn't know!)

[howycwap]

how does he hit the china under his china??

[StephenFiorentini]

0:47-0:52 theres a voice saying 'hi....its steve'

[TheTwicey]

'' Hello, what>?

[mythkid1208]

It always seems that some drummers look like actors! Like Chad with will Ferrell. Another example is Neil Peart and Tom hanks.

[ArthurYannLB]

@mythkid1208 Holy shit, I googled both Neil Pert and Tom Hanks, they actually look alike!

[zackattack94]

@mythkid1208 thats the only drummers who like actors dumbass

[mythkid1208]

@zackattack94 Really? You mean other drummers don't like actors? Then who do they like? Doctors? Teachers?

You might wanna rephrase that buddy

[tommasotemporin]

he doesn't even know the size of his own cymbals XD

[fruhotchiliman]

whats that underneath his china??

[j0gan673]

@fruhotchiliman under one china is another china. under that is a floor tom. on top the drum, but still beneath the chinas is a pair a sticks. attached to the floor tom, but not quite beneath the chinas, is a microphone. oh, and there's prolly a stand underneath the chinas too.

[777DRMATI]

Ese tipo sabe tocar...

[mkbyrne]

He needs more Cowbell

[gtrocksyosocks]

Love the Wonder Bread Ricky Bobby hat. Classic.

[mikolene97]

uhm, sizes?

[MardyBumOfficial]

@mikolene97 probably 18' and 19

[literisfrenchfor]

@mikolene97 I believe 18" and 20" AA Rock Crashes. How he doesn't know what he's playing, I don't know.

[MrMantis0]

@literisfrenchfor 19" and 20" rock crashes

[bea5ToloG]

AHAHAHAHA! hes wearing a Ricky Bobby hat! he knows he looks like Will Ferrel.

[tripjams]

his hi hats are the shit, but they go for like 300:(

[Lawes27]

@tripjams I've got some they are not the best for much except loud playing but I love them and hate them!

[tisBenG]

@tripjams yeah bloody annoyin :(

[MardyBumOfficial]

@tripjams hi hats are shit? LOLz. That hats are mastersound... the top is AAX, and the bottom is probably custom made mastersound for him, or, he is using other cymbal line in the bottom.

[tripjams]

@MardyBumOfficial i said THE shit dude lol

[mrbling5]

@MardyBumOfficial there xcelerators not custom made ive got a pair for christ sake :P.

[NewDarkAges13]

lol i can hear the camera guy whisper "AA" when he was guessing what china he has. I love Chad Smith

[jesusdapnk1]

diggin his jacket!

[cjguth3]

Chad is a hilarious dude and a great drummer. And this is obviously Chad not Will. You can tell from his voice lol

[1DrummerNick]

Yep definately :L

[TheMtc123]

is he drunk?

[eduardobadra]

man they are pretty drunk

[eldiabloband]

he's wearing a RICKY BOBBY hat...

[huggybar17]

love chad smith what a great person and sick drummer defernetly one of my biggest inspirations as a drummer

[Ceades09]

Definately drunk!

[manjarchafracd]

why in the sabian website it said that he got a medium crash 19" and a rock crash 20" . and here he said he has 2 rock crash of diferent sizes

what is the actual cymbal set up of chad smith?

[jjbb20]

@manjarchafracd Sabian nor the artists never update the drum set-up's of their endorsers. There is no telling how old some of the set-up's are on that list. I beleive now Chad has two signature crashes that is in the Sabian Vault line of cymbals. You can check those out on Sabians web site.

[adds102]

@manjarchafracd

I'm pretty sure atm, (chickenfoot tour) he uses

14" AA Medium Hats

19" AA Rock Crash

21" AA Rock RIde

20" AA Rock Crash

20" Prototype China

[davelewitt]

Chad is a great drummer AND a great guy-

totally relaxed and a great sense of humor-

He is the engine and the driving rhythmic force  of one of the most successful bands in the biz--

check out this solo by a huge Chad fan and the author of

"The Book of Funk Beats- grooves for snare, bass and hihat"

search:

"Drum Solo in 3 Movements" on YouTube

[Phantomshock]

@HEKTIKboyz21 X-celerators have a wavy bottom to allow the air to flow out faster, just like on some Paiste chats and all if Zildjian mastersound hats.

[manrayer88]

They kinda sound alike too. weird.

[zal01]

i love how little he gives a shit about what he's playing

[papertowelzftw123]

haha hes fucked upppp

[alehi1]

chad is so awesome.

[luciealie]

I wish talking and drinking with this guy, Chad is so funny.

[MattTheFunkyDrummer]

Jokes

[OUZOKU104]

Chad on his Sabian China Cymbals: "I think this is an AA...or an AAX or, uh, its a-- sometim-type, its, this is an A-- This Is an AA, and sometimes, ill go in between-"

[zackattack94]

wasted

[zellofhell]

haha as if his wear a ricky bobby hat

[danieljordison0793]

haha your funny

[KaatjedeKip]

chad makes the cameran man laugh by talking...

[Baillie18]

sick! where abouts in northampton was this?

[HeyItsRocco]

will ferrell!!

[njnetsfan524]

ahhhh hes got a ricky bobby hat on!!!!!! best movie ever

[fcmilsweeper9]

what a chill dude.

Did he do all the heroin and stuff RHCP was doing in the 90s?

[kamino78]

there is lots of talk about what all of the other band members did, but I really can't say if he was just smoking weed or the whole shebang :P

[wetdog158]

he's sooo drunk hahaha.

[AvengedSevenfold6475]

@wetdog158 ikr tell by his voice

[berserkah]

The symbal he does last, the one with the 'little sizzles' what type of symbal is that?

[mike1234145]

@berserkah

Its a AA China with rivets

[spurious]

First of all, it's spelled Cymbal.

Secondly, that was a China, just like the one he showed just before it.

[SabianVault]

@EviISaintNickpart3

I can assure you that is indeed Chad Smith and the man behind the camera is Jerome Marcus, he was UK Artist Relations for SABIAN at that time.

[pliodocus]

@EviISaintNickpart3 well if we agree that ive met chad smith then i think we can safely agree that ive met the man in the video... because ITS CHAD SMITH. and that last insult is probably the worst ive ever heard

[pliodocus]

@EviISaintNickpart3 i've met him. its chad smith.

[hellooben]

"yeah this is my tour-set, and now I gotta go!" haha x'D

[zellofhell]

HAHAHA awsom hat

[jjbb20]

Totally agree with FunkyMonkDrumming. Anybody that is a fan of either Will Ferrel or Chad Smith should be able to see the difference between the two. Anybody that can't see this is Chad Smith is an idiot.

[Destroy240995]

@jjbb20 Do you know he once went to a blink concert and got mistaken for Will Ferrel, everyone was like "Hey WILL!" lol, I can tell the difference, but some people with bad eyesight can't

[FunkyMonkDrumming]

Anyone who doesn't automatically know that's Chad Smith by hearing his voice or seeing him is a moron.

[TheRoXXorsGuy]

i love how the camera guy just tries not to laugh at all the antics CS does

[nuluos9]

@EviISaintNickpart3

the evidence is that the sabian youtube channel uploaded it. why would they upload a chad smith impression?

[777jackpot1]

O yea, you have no life. Ur prolly a grown adult on your mom's computer trying to hurt pepole's feelings on the internet.

[777jackpot1]

You spelled terrible wrong.

[TheSmithchad]

OHHH yes Its Expensiv......

only The cymbals: ~1700 Til 1800$

i think it's expensiv^^

[777jackpot1]

Well first of all dumbass, he doesn't look that much like will ferrel. Also why would anyone waste their time buying a big expensive drumset just to pretend their chad smith? They'd have to have no life like you.

[777jackpot1]

FAGGET.

[pliodocus]

i love chad smith

[AaronTheHippie808]

woooo

[willissocoollike]

omg you fuckin dumbass.

[roberteats]

both of them are so drunk right now

[yourawesomenesss]

lol he sounds funny when he says north hampton england.

[mattcribbin]

sounds good ham and egger.

[mattcribbin]

What it doesn't look like Will Ferrell enough? Fuckin idiots. If you're not one of those fuckin idiots then i'm sorry.

[unbornanddeathless]

is he drunk or something? :D

[etherealeyes]

totally

[migoffspring]

what hats are most versatil AAX Stage or X-celerator hats?

[doublebassaxisdrummr]

X-Celerators, hands down.

[sk8rforlife1]

Chad Smith doesn't look like Will Ferrel.

Will Ferrel looks like Chad Smith.

[Hartman442]

ohhhhhhh

[OwensDrumming]

@sk8rforlife1 I thought that ever since I saw Chad Smith

[HiHats14]

introducing on drums mr.will ferrel

[addmin2227]

oooooohh god the cymblels made me have a.............

[ryanneedhamthe3rd]

14 u tards

[Extremepaintball10]

Does anyone know what size of Hi-Hats Chad uses?

[Sousleek]

14"

[migoffspring]

AAX X-celerator hats 14".

and i dont know what hats are best AAX Stage or X-celerator.

[kokainkonni]

i can't help you with that, but... I just bought the xcelerator hats, i hope they'll make the difference. but you probably won't make a mistake, wheather it's the one or the other.

[NewDarkAges13]

some ppl say x celerator have a more crisp sound though.

[etherealeyes]

very crispy, with a vacuumless chick. I play hhx x-celerators, heavier but with the same concept as the aax ones. Very nice stage presence, and very versatile

[doublebassaxisdrummr]

awesome, thanks. cuz i know they make them in 13 and 15. i have 15 hats now and they are way too big.

[doublebassaxisdrummr]

who knows what inch his hats are?

[NZforum]

something expensive ;p

[chilly2829]

camera man keeps laughing

[wifebeater77777]

lmao hes either drunk or fucked up on ex, pretty funny tho

[seventeen17van]

[seventeen17van]

haha....wait, just making sure, you were kidding right?

[seventeen17van]

chads so cool. he's definitely the more down to earth guy of the group.

[StephenFiorentini]

Check out this aax 'ping!' splash lol

btw, i know ive pointed this out before, but if you listen REALLY CAREFULLY between 0:48-0:52 seconds, you can hear a girls voice saying ' hi...its steve' lol

i randomally noticed it one night LOL

[abc123CG]

i think it says "buy it" at 0:48 lol - gud spot 'stephenfiorentini'! lol

[ahmadkhairul]

you cant even recognise chad smith??

[TunaOfTheLand]

Marco uses Zildjian cymbals and DW drums, not Sabian cymbals and pearl drums. and also SABIANVAULT posted this, thats like a company..not some random user like you..

[davidelvis95]

He's high.

[v11drummer]

drunk. not high.

he's a super drunk.

[dkucia11]

either way, Don't Do Drugs, Kids!

[etherealeyes]

unless you want to be cool. lol

[RHCPandBASS]

Chad Smith doesnt do drugs, drinks though

[stownlax85]

thats a drug

[Hartman442]

he smokes too

[connordrum]

You have no Idea how good I am, or any evidence to support your arguement. I think everyone here knows who the "cunt sucker" is.

[connordrum]

Do you even play drums buddy?

[connordrum]

ZOMG Who IS It?

[Chilipeppersallday]

what a retard. it is chad smith. ask anyone besides ure mom.

[skipbreakfast]

Oh I'm sure his mom knows.

[Chilipeppersallday]

[SuperChuck3]

IMO he's the most hilarious drummer I've ever seen and he's definitely one of the best Funk drummers in the world :P

[vegadomis32988]

[Taydrum]

[jedwards55]

[Taydrum]

[adds102]

Like Jedwards55 said he isn't braindead.

He's probably drunk in this video.

[adds102]

I recently got 2 AA rock crash's and they sound amazing!

[favd2002]

[BokorugroRR]
