All About Finger Cymbals

Here is a video lesson on finger cymbals. I demonstrate different types of finger cymbals and finger cymbal machines as well as how to play them.

Hi Rick. Really helpful video. What would you recommend for a good loud finger cymbal for a broadways show on a Miller machine? I have an LP atm and it isn’t doing the job. I need a nice loud ‘Disney-type’ of accent. Thanks! Tim

Hi Tim Try a zildjian heavy finger cymbal or even a zil works.

Hey there! at 8:46 you have those cymbal clappers and I have been looking around to find any retailers, but not only can I not find hardly any pictures, but none of them actually lead to anything that can help me find them. I tried different instrument shops and sites, different search engines, but still haven't found any. My question is, did you buy these separately from the finger cymbals? Like did they come attached to it or not? Also was it online or in a store? You got me really interested in those little guys, and I'd appreciate some help. Thanks man! :>

Hi Madeline I have had those for many years and I cannot remember where I got them. Try Steve Weiss Music online. You can also call them up and see if they can get some for you.
