Neil switches to Sabian

Hahaha. I'm not that great with drum gear but if you do have any questions I'm sure I can answer them.

Paiste rides do rock, Danny Carey for example used one on his old Paiste kit for Lateralus. It has a nice dry, pingy sound to it. I loved it, I have my ride set-up just like his now, I'm trying to test it out.

Matter of oppinion? HA! If you bought ZXT Ti's like myself and thought they were outstanding, paying over $600 Canadian, getting them home, opening them up, playing them and saying to yourself "What a piece of sh*t!". At first I said I love them, meaning my oppinion, while I was talking to other people saying they weren't too good. I asked people on a drummer forum if they were good and they said no. I got them home and they were right, not me. They weren't their oppinions, it was known fact that they were sucky cymbals but I liked how they shined.

A Customs are nice but they aren't the best line of Zildjian. I found Sabian were better than Zildjian, I just didn't think to get Sabian when I agreed with myself on ZXT Ti's. K Custom's are the nicest, smoothest sounding cymbal I have ever heard. Their dark crashes are seriously, outstanding. Their rides are runner-ups on Paiste. I love them. But A Customs are probably the second best Zildjian out there. Alot of people have them.

We don't have just a marching band in our school, its just a school band with everyone in it. Meaning all instruments, not just drums. I don't even play drums in my school band, I play Alto Sax. Our school band has Sabian AAX cymbals and Sabian Hand Hammered cymbals. We also have a Pearl Export as the set.

Other than that, I have no clue what the hell you're talking about.

neither do I, what brand Alto Sax would you suggest? I am kind of partial to Selmer myself..

I use H.Kreisler Alto's. They give a good, saxy sound with a warm sound in them as well. Selmer's are good as well, but I would go with a Kreisler.

I would probably want what my idol David Sanborn uses.
