These are the cymbals I was looking for, I kept remembering "blue 2002 flat rides" in my head.

Vintage Ludwigs? Nice kit, good take

Finest sound i've heard till now

Ever think about adding rivets to those flat rides?

Nice sounding cymbals, superb stick definition, excellent drumming, in my original fo602 set there is a 20 flat ride plus one 2002 BL 18 flat ride, would like to try also the traditional sign. in say 22 size for good measure😊

I'd probably prefer it with a couple of rivets. It's nice without rivets too.

Fanflippinstastic!

This is still the best demo of a Ludwig CM downbeat on KZbin!

Beautiful sounding cymbals and drums, beautifully played!

I found by luck a Paiste Flat Ride 18" with rivets a couple of years ago, it sounds so good!

Great playing, I don't have a flat ride but I'm starting to think a Paiste flat ride might be the way to go. My favorite flat ride moment is in Phish "Harry Hood" on the album A Live One Jon Fishman uses a Zildjian flat ride with rivets, the part I'm talking about starts around 5:40 if you want to check it out

Get the Stainless steel, man.

Nice chops

Sounds magical :)

Great playing and great video. As everyone here, I'm a huge fan of flat rides. Currently own a 20" Paiste 602 flat ride and just picked up a cool Istanbul Agop 20" Vezir flat ride. Much darker and heavier than the Paiste. But they compliment each other nicely.

This video is as old as me!

22inch sound creation dark flat ride is the crown Jewel of my collection.

So what do you do with the hi hat

what overhead mics did you use? i've go a sf24 stereo and the mic is placed in middle front of the kit facing down. Any suggestions, id like to use your example, should I rotate the OH with stereo imager so that I can have mine in the same configuration? I'll try it and see how I go...Btw Great tutorial

Is the sound we are hearing coming from those mics?

Great playing!

It's a Drum Kit chump.

Probably Much like you, I heard - now he sings / now he sobs, and I wanted that sound. So I went to get a 602 18” flat, and I was at the Chicago music exchange and played a 2002 20” flat, which I would NEVER logically buy. The little extra brightness livened that cymbal up but stays articulate like flats should. It’s a jazz miracle. The crazy 2002 flat ride that just works so well for combo scenarios!

Try mics under the Tom's for a better sound.

I'd add a crash and another ride, but wow, those sound great! The snare fits perfectly with the rest of the kit. And nice Ringo-ing around at 8:28.

Wood or nylon tips ??? Should always specify . Would love to hear these with nylon vs wood demo .

Playing those strokes with both hands in unison reminds me of Steve Smith. Nice job. Tony Williams used to do that right?

LOVE my Yamaha Rock Tour Custom kit....Not made anymore. 8X8,10X10,12X10.13X13,18X16 BD,( converted floor tom.Still sounding great after 35 years.

I want it

Total pro. Ready for the big time.

❤

Thanks for the insight 🙏 nice playing and feel sir 🥁🙌

Hopefully not repeating myself on your post but - I grabbed a full set in oct last year, after using a SCB snare I impulse-bought at GC as my gig workhorse (paired nicely with my RCs). This kit is phenomenal! Even before considering the crazy-low price point. My new working kit for sure. Can't wait to get it out both live and in the studio. Cannot say enough good stuff about this kit (as well as the steel snare from the Stage Custom line, also my new favorite).

Sounds damn good ❤

Stellar

Rad

Damn

Those rides are sneakily quiet until you smash em then give just enough room fill. Doesn't hurt that you play so well. The tuning you have on the drums really compliments the sound. Thanks for the sharing that

Do you find it harder/less satisfying to play bass drum without the resonant head?

I think they sound great! Iconic! Great playing also! Thanks for this post.

And you're not telling us what kind of wood the the drums are made out of because ? ? ? 🐝🐝🐝

Ma786sai Dua tremendous

Love 18 and 20 flat rides like these! And nice Blue(?) mic on the kick.

Tuned in to listen to the 26" kick, false advertisement lol.. Great chops nonetheless!

What heads do you have on there?

Great clip. Flat rides are indeed awesome. You're an excellent player. Cheers!

Spectacularly beautifully played demo, thank you. Am especially taken with the gorgeous sounds you're producing with your 18" 602! Having just purchased a new 18" 602 thin, I'd love it if you'd be able to tell me what sticks you are using, please.

niceee... great sounding kit man and very nice playing. good timing. btw.... what do you think about a Paiste 602 medium flat ride? (approx 1750g)... I cant get the thin nowhere but i can get a medium from the 70s in good condition. What do you think?

I have been looking for your channel but couldn’t find it. Luckily it just popped up on the algorithm.

Man that drum set sounds great! Would love to have a brass Supraphonic!
