@mongoosebootrrider Whoa O.o

@OneTakeJesus That's one thing I dislike about Wuhan chinas, their fast decay. I prefer chinas as trashy as they come. Stagg SH chinas, too bright for me, a bit too clean also, DH chinas, trashier but still not enough, Stagg Traditional Lion chinas, now THOSE are trashy enough. But for now I'll stick with the no-name one I'm using.

@OneTakeJesus Interesting. I wonder what a china cymbal with a raw finish would sound like.

[OneTakeJesus]

@WhenxChristxReturnsx Keep in mind if you'd want to keep the cymbal's finish as dark as it would be, the rule of thumb is to wait at least a month for the molecules to reform and shape around the "damage" done. Or else it will literally sound dead! I have cymbals that don't make noises... It's a very possible outcome, so I always wait a month or two to play it again.

@WhenxChristxReturnsx After I got my first 18 inch china, I was still unhappy! Wanted something MORE! Got a 20 inch, and now I wanna go 20 inch on the left, 22 on the right. I'm kinda tired of my Wuhan china though. For me, I want something that sings! Not an incredibly fast decay. Even when I play in my Jazz/fusion band, I would prefer a less trashy china cymbal to ride on.

@OneTakeJesus Very true, I can't agree with you more. When it comes to cymbals, it's always best to try them in person before buying, but that's what sucks about Stagg and Wuhan, no one around here sells them. Wow man that's an incredible bargain! I may have to check out that china. It's kind of ironic you mention a 22" one, I've been thinking and after the 27" china breaks I'll try a 22". That 27 incher has gotten me hooked on the sound of big chinas :3

@OneTakeJesus I may try that, I wouldn't mind having a cymbal with a dark finish. I saw a video the other day for a raw ride cymbal by Wuhan, but it's the only video/information I could find on it, must be a prototype or something. I've been itching to try some Stagg Black Metal cymbals.

@WhenxChristxReturnsx Right on. Budget cymbals right there. It'd be a whole lot better to buy them in a store, because none of them sound the same really.

I'm so excited that I'm switching to Sabian again! I won an auction last night on Ebay and got a brand new pair of brilliant 13" HHX X-Celerator hats!! Payed 190 for a 400 dollar pair of cymbals! I'm heading towards my dream china next.. 22 inch HH Dark Chinese. Oh baby!

@drummer123apple I use a blow torch when I make cymbals. ;D Better than a lighter I'd think!

But it will ruin the finish of that side of your cymbal if you do that. At least with the blow torch... I can't see a little lighter doing much to a thick Myra cymbal. On my hats and ride, I always have a little piece of sticky tack. You should try it, the difference is awesome! Doesn't dampening the cymbal completely like a moongel would, it's just right!
