Those are Paiste Twenty Series cymbals.

[bensinstod]

No it can't be twenty because paiste didn't make the Twenty Series in 2006.

[vernssd]

@bensinstod : I think they're the Paiste Signature Series

[bensinstod]

@vernssd No, Those are giant beats

[emaculate]

@bensinstod definitley twenty... great drummer!!

[bensinstod]

@emaculate he used to use Giant Beats but now he's using cymbals from the twenty line is Since: 2007, and this was in 2006

It's drumming like this that'll get you the Jobs. Not showing everyone how blazing fast you are

[paistekid]

They're all giant beat. pause at 1:09 and you can see the logo on the hat. I've been playing giant beat since they were re-introduced. Their characteristic sound and distinctive colour really set them apart from other Paiste series. I find the signatures and 2002 a little too bright for me these days.

@emaculate Giant Beat

[kimandrebjorkesett]

anyone know what soundtrack this is? its cool

[paistekid]

I was at the convention and Jason gave us the run down on this cymbal set-up.

That's the 24" Giant Beat you're seeing. No 2002 in this set-up. It's actually real easy to distinguish the difference between the giant beat and 2002.

Hope this helps.

[paistekid]

I was at this convention. Jason gave us the low down on his drums and cymbals set-up before he played. He's used the "Bonham's configuration" AKA Giant Beat Series at this festival.

24", 20", 18" and 15" hats. If you look closely at the video, all the cymbals are clearly identified.

Hope this helps.

saw him live with death cab. Nothing beats his power and timing.

@TAMAvsDW that says "Giant Beat"

[RockstarBurnzy]

[philgecko]

His ride is a paiste 2002 24" crash cymbal. used as a ride.
