CONGRATS!

[@carlmclean9304]

Beautiful sounding kit well done both of you.

[@sakshiguglianipradhan3843]

LoooOOOOOOvvvveee your bass ! I want to be an SJC artist when I grow up!

[@4themusicman]

Hey, weren't you guys on The Profit? Loved that episode!

[@francoaranda6499]

hey SJC Custom Drums can i have some free drums im broke

[@oobernoober7617]

@@francoaranda6499 same I don't want anything too fancy, just an exact replica of Tré cool's cheetah print kit with snare. I mean it usually around $5k but how about this one time we bring it down to a few hundred

[@ColeRolland]

So insane. Congrats!!

[@KyeSmith]

Congrats!

[@Macintoshman9]

RIP TRX Cymbals

[@juanemmanuelsalinas2001]

Will Owen got that right my friend

[@AlexLunaMx]

:’(

[@LHawkesDrums]

every good artist goes from TRX to Zildjian

[@nixonagustin_]

Rip

[@davegods278]

cobus goes to sabian instead

[@micah.lindley]

Seeing and hearing these cymbals, I had to comment a recommendation (If you don't mind). My suggestion would be to loosen the cymbal nuts a bit to help them sing better. Cymbals tend to last longer when they can be free. :) From this perspective they looked a little tight and it hurts to imagine them breaking. Just a recommendation!! Keep being a frickin' amazing drummer! \m/

[@micah.lindley]

Awesome.

[@paradigmshiftz7]

Micah Lindley I agree. The only thing that should be tight is (if you own one) a zilbel or a really small oriental China so that they don't sound "wobbly"

[@oscargareskog2893]

WOW!! This is freaking amazing Kristina!! This just puts a huge smile on my face, I'm so glad for you! I've always been wondering how long you were gonna play TRX, and when Zildjian was gonna hook you up! I guess I don't need to wonder anymore, haha! Congratulations! You deserve this!

[@aaronlandry8026]

Hey no hate at all (and i love your channel actually!), but loosen up your cymbals. as in dont screw them in too tight because they will probably crack faster. Those are amazing cymbals btw!!!

[@NEALBABBITT]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/jnivm3qIibCEjac

[@musiqueman1]

Congrats on becoming a Zildjian artist! AND congrats on 274K Subscribers!!

[@AlexDrums97]

Such small cymbals. I would go: 15" New beat hats, 20" A Medium thin crash, 20" K Crash/ride, 21" K crash/ride brill. & 18" K efx

[@rohanmisra9794]

its all in the opinion man, but i would agree that this quite a cliche zildjian set up haha

[@ardnassaclotsirb4359]

Rohan Misra It’s still pretty awesome though

[@angeliebay3276]

agree. but 18" k efx isnt a powerfull cymbal at all...maybe A custom efx 20"? My choice would be (and actually is) 15" A custom mastersound hi hats/20" A custom Projection crash/21"K crash ride 21" as a crash/23" A sweet ride and 22" china whatever you could find (A china boy high 22" is really cool and not so hard to find)..... but as a girl she got a propriate set exept a 16" crash (19" could be perfect).

[@paradigmshiftz7]

Alex Klein nice. I'd go with 15" A Custom Mastersound Hi Hats, 18" A Custom Crash, 19" A Custom Crash, 21" A Sweet Ride Brilliant and a 19" A Ultra Hammered China. Big but not too big.

[@timothytacocong6464]

Alex Klein it’s your choice.

[@mr.roboto5722]

I feel like a parent watching my kid open that perfect gift. Except I didn't have to buy it. And I don't have any kids. Win-win. Gratz and thanks for sharing. =)

[@kridedrummer]

Huge congrats! Zildjian really makes the best sounding and looking cymbals

[@charliec5363]

Congrats Kris!! Awesome sounds, can't wait for the next videos.

[@ZaxDrumsandGolf]

Congratulations on the new endorsement!! And they look and sound nice!!

[@strange_beanxd6367]

The sound on those cymbals are unreal !!! Great video 👍

[@maxadrums]

GIIIRRRLLLLLL!!!!!!!!!

[@maxadrums]

Absolutely have to agree, the A Custom's can't go wrong. And the Sweet Ride, MAN! That's one of my favorite cymbals of all time. Played it for over a decade before switching over to the Dual Crash/Ride by Meinl I'm currently using, and they fill a similar broad purpose. Congratulations! And nice choices!!

[@vxntagejosh]

Kristina Schiano Thank you,Kristina!!!

[@samysilvermusicartist]

Yeah she is a awesome drummer!! 👍🥁😎

Beautiful set of cymbals. Your whole kit just sounds epic x

[@tomaslauterkranz7621]

@Kristina Shiano Hey Kristi! Your drums sound so great and clean and just overall fu**ing good! :D I just wanted to ask what microphones are you usings, the recording interface and how do you usually EQ your drums, thank you so much! And have fun with Zildjians! :) Keep going and being great! :) Greetings from Czech Republic btw. :) PS: Are you using 22 or 24" bass drum?

[@jasonkelly7573]

the tradition A 21 sweet ride goes really well with the A customs, i like the sound of the A custom crashes but all my crashes are the traditional A's 16" and 18" that came in the A391 cymbal pack from Zildjian. i've always owned the traditional A's, but always liked the sound of the customs with the brilliant finish.

[@gadymarcus5297]

Kristina Schiano very happy new year I wish you a good health and good luck with your format

[@MatthewCoe]

Gasp! Loved Zildjian from the first time I played 'em in high school, and these sound *amazing* even through my phone speaker. Your glee shines through when you hit that China. Can't wait to hear your work on these!

[@marianoleturia8537]

Congrats!! beautiful cymbals. Keep it up!

[@haydengantt802]

Congrats on the new cymbals

[@jeremyz6911]

So happy for you!!! I had a feeling you would pick the Sweet Ride.

[@haydenschroeder4703]

I love Zildjian!! I got all A's on my breakbeats and they are amazing

[@gpagliuca13]

So cool !!! Congratulations and great Cymbals selections

[@antonlarter2123]

You deserve this amazing success! Those cymbals are FIRE!!👏👏👏

[@jamesweldon9726]

I love Zildjians for their shimmering high end. I have a similar setup but mine are the old Avedis Zildjians: 14” Quick Beat Hi-hats 22” Medium Ride 18" Medium Crash 18” China High 16” Thin Crash I think A. Customs have a bit more mid-range, but they also look a lot nicer. All of my A. Zildjians were made between 1972-86, and no two sounded the same. I had to go to 3 different stores to find the 16” Thin Crash I liked. The consistency of the A. Custom line is nice to hear. Congrats on your new cymbals! They sound great! Also, congrats on being a Zildjian Artist.

[@henne2k]

Love your groove! Very nice! Congrats to the endorsement.

[@IEDrums]

I'm super happy for you and all you've had accomplished tbh. watching you back in 2013 was truly an inspiration and now in 2018 you still are one of my main drummers. So, congratulations, Kristina, you really worked super hard for this and you deserved it!

[@Thatsreallynotme]

Congrats!! Thats soo great!

[@scottswift8153]

That’s so sick, I’m peanut butter and jealous.

[@Stevo_Drums]

The ride does sound sweet all around, especially during the quarter note sticking. Just enough ping, but also really works as a crash/ride. I love all of your cymbal picks. Zildjian is fortunate to have you on board. Congrats!

[@Spencerlestiadi]

Yes congratulations! Excited to see more of your craft and creativity being supported by these amazing companies!!!

[@alessandronattero1471]

What a result!!! Congrats! I really feel inspiring your playing

[@paradigmshiftz7]

Ngl you kinda should've got the Brilliant finish Sweet Ride to match the rest of your set. I'll tell you now: it's an absolute beast. I got it for Christmas and I use it at home and at church. Amazing ride, crash ride and even crash

[@AVEdrums]

Wth, this is so dopeee, congrats!!! Those cymbals look awesome😍

[@brianjezuit1258]

Hi. I love your Green Day Basket Case cover. Up until now, thatZ the only video of yours that I've seen. You seem to be as passionate about the drums and drumming in general as I am (and have been since I began playing back in 1992)!!! Congratulations on your Zildjian endorsement. I started out with Zildjian on a pair of 13" A New Beat hats. I also swear by the 13" hats. My biggest inspiration, Neil Peart, is the reason why I started with them. As time went on, I began appreciating the siZe for itZ own reasons, like the fast sound, the clean chick, etc. Great video.

[@martinmurphy5691]

Awesome cymbals! i got a 16in Zildijan Crash and it sounds amazing

[@richardturietta9455]

I always loved Zildjian over any other cymbals as well. Such a sweet sound, so full and rich in texture. Awesome!

[@matiaslaunas4820]

Congratulations!! you deserve it. That china sounds incredible, welcome to the family.

[@AlexSamm]

I love how clean and simplistic your setup is. I should probably look at being a bit more simpler as well

[@joyjljr8899]

Addicted to these tones 😁 could play the drum whole day

[@sdjmalik]

Congrats 👍🏾

[@darkclaw3296]

Congrats Kristina! Zildjian in my opinion are THE BEST cymbals out there! Can't wait for your future videos to hear 'em in action!

[@stickwithit]

That's amazing! Congratulations!

[@Armz316]

Congratulations on your new cymbals & becoming a Zildjian Artists! I love it! I only have Zildjian ZBT though. New drummer here.

[@2NIWRAD2]

You are so lucky. Way to go. Can't wait for more.

[@sethpooser5291]

I have the exact same ride cymbal as you. It HAS to be the most versatile cymbal I've ever played. Congrats on becoming a part of Zildjian. Looking forward to more videos! :)

[@danielbrunson8278]

Me to i love playing with those cymbals its make me wanna buy more

[@joephilippus1749]

Congrats!!! Definitely well deserved! Keep rockin’!

[@sebastianhorcajada9086]

Awesome sounding cymbals.... Especially the china :) Hope you have lots of fun with these cymbals :)

[@hejfo69]

It's been so cool to see you grow over the past few years - congrats! Very well deserved.

[@salmorreale7900]

It is so much fun to listen to you play!

[@SonorGeek05]

Zildjian is the best in my opinion. I use 14" K mini china, 2X 19" A custom crash, 20 A series rock ride, 14" Z custom master sound hi hats, 13" K/Z special hi hats, and 13" A series master sound hi hats

[@tonymunoz9847]

I looked for a drum cover to corroborate the sequence and suddenly I watched your video. I go 4 hours watching your progress from the first video to this video and I only stopped to write that you should never have changed your old zildjian hi hats, until this video appeared and your new set, uf, I will keep watching and keep taking notes for the questions for the last video, congrats.

[@thosesmallyesterdays]

You look so happy! Nice guys over there at Zildjian!

[@jeffp.5465]

Excellent, well deserved. Best of luck to your music career - your talent + your hard work has paid off well!

[@sillygirlypop12345]

Congratulations and sick cymbals!

[@subparsav]

This makes me so happy! Congrats!

[@masonstoudt2374]

Congrats. Keep up the awesome work

[@jeraldaylsworth7727]

So happy to see they can recognize talent! Great for you! Now i just cannot wait to hear more covers in the coming weeks. Enjoy NAM and will be waiting for the new vids, take care!

[@DrummerGrrrl]

You look so very thrilled! I'm so happy for you! You're soooooo talented. I wish I had had more confidence at your age... I'm more of a Paiste cymbal lover than a Zildj...ohhh, sheee-it! Uhh...did I tell you how much I love Zildjian cymbals?!?! Ha ha! But, seriously, those cymbals you picked out sound very nice, indeed. I'm a poor artist (painter, drummer, singer) and I kind of fell in love with the Paiste lower cost cymbals. Some of them sound better than the expensive ones. I can skimp on some cheaper crashes but never for hi-hats and ride cymbals. I love Zildjian K Custom series for hi-hats and rides. The A Customs are just a tad on the glassy side for my liking. I love those old, dark K's on some jazz/jazz fusion records, you know? Anyway, great news, great drumming, "talk" to ya later! :-)

[@RayRayP2001]

Man that is awesome!!! Can't wait to hear you really rock out with them!! Zildjian is the best

[@azthedrummer5553]

Well deserved I love zildjain I’ve completed my set last year it took a while but worth it

[@drumsNstuff79]

You play a lot of the cymbals I've been playing for years! I play A custom 13" hi hats, 18" and 16" A custom fast crashes and the 21" A Sweet ride as well. One gig we did a bill with a bunch of other bands. We did a kit share and they used my stuff. The drummer for another band, Ryan asked to use my ride, and after their set he told me he was going to go right out and get one. The name says it all. It is pretty freakin sweet!

[@onyxavatar]

Congrats! That's awesome!

[@svartedauden3566]

fun to watch you enjoy your new gear.

[@Armz316]

I love it! Congratulations on your awesome new cymbals! Take care & God bless you!

[@haydengantt802]

I recommend the 7" zil bell

[@Ryno9906]

Congratulations! Another huge step towards taking over the WORLD! As a young drummer back in the day, I'd be reading the rock mags taking notice what my my favorite drummers were using like TAMA kits with a ton of Zildjans! Can't wait to hear how it adds to the overall sound. I'm happy for you. Ur on ur way babe!!!!

[@pastorrobertorodriguez2476]

That looks so freaking amazing!!! Congrats 🎊

[@claraelizarosales632]
