[@Noobhead34DoesMC]

[@Lavaminecraft]

+jewsus say wallah (bbhead) you're not alone....

[@RajStarMusic]

1am I feel you

[@kd_drumss]

A year later, and I feel exactly the same!

[@Poeme340]

every night now-gotta stop.😆👍

[@CrNgLrD]

his snare sound is literally PERFECT OMG

[@HerbalistGuybrush]

get his snare then dude. Its his sonor signature model dude.

[@mogglie]

I got this snare. And. I’ve never managed to tune it like that. Haha. Many I’m still learning to tune it.

[@HiFisch94]

​@@mogglie a few months ago he published a very thorough and comprehensive tuning guide. You might want to check it out 😁

[@KBno14]

I was gonna start having a heart-attack when he bent that 22" like that...

[@airmax247]

KBno14 me too!!

[@odeskoo]

ha!

[@esteemedfustilarian]

things i would give up to achieve Greb's limb independence: coffee for life my car sense of sight taco bell my brother's firstborn child

[@joshcheee8659]

Bryce Young probably is the price of a car 🤣

[@andrewgrissom1419]

Your brothers?😂

[@1Live2Love3Thrive]

Anything but slow and consistent practice haha

[@philipnestor5034]

You’ll need the car to get to gigs!

[@ChrisCadenhead]

Idk, sounds like a sad brother to me

[@j88k001]

Every single aspect of this video is 110% platinum. The commentary. The mixing. The cymbals. The drums. And the fucking PERFORMANCE.

[@LemorasCards]

Every time I hear Benny Greb speak I imagine him saying "Hello. My name is Benny Greb and I know more than you."

[@YouthDrummer]

Cause he probably does

[@herotrueblue5704]

No cap

[@kalj3]

Benny sounds like Marshall describing the best burger in New York.

[@TheSummerCoast]

+kalj3 When he says "And as you can see it gets more beautiful with age" makes my heart melt a bit

[@RobDdrummer]

Best comment! Made my day.. Lol!

[@guardianasgaard]

love how passionate he is about drumming and music in general :)

[@willdthrill13]

2:56 nononono BENNY STAHP

[@ajgdrums24]

I think Benny Greb has achieved more sounds with a drum kit than anyone else. his playing never ceases to amaze me

[@Simon-iy7mt]

Probably my favourite cymbals set as of this moment. And his grooves... Man!

[@jacobsmith1877]

This is the first truly high quality video on Meinl's channel. When you look back on the enormous amount of music and product videos they've released over last 9 years since this video came out it's pretty amazing what a catalog they've built, as well as an incredible roster of musicians and instruments. This entire cymbal set is still something I dream of owning someday

[@meinlcymbals]

Hi Jacob, thanks for taking the time to watch our videos. Our artists have all put in so much heart and dedication to their craft, that the least we can do is provide one more platform to let the world see and hear their talents.

[@grooveinstitute]

These cymbals are simply amazing! Well done, Benny!

[@CharlesBeauregard]

Top Meinl Class. Good drummer and good demo. I have a Byzance Extra Dry kit since 5 years and love it but now I want to get some of those vintage.

[@dannchrisdrums]

The sound of the drums is so sick...especially the kick.

[@Murtagh470]

These cymbals sound amazing, Benny is a awesome drummer and his floor tom sounds like a cannon... Beautiful.

[@American_Simian]

that bassline tho

[@ibleebinU]

One could jam with him all day/night!

[@richiehenrydrums]

Those things sound incredible! I've never known another musician like Benny who plays with so much honesty.

[@jaydoode15]

one of the most musical drummers around, no one can touch this man's feel.

[@salimn.1097]

4:01 Turns out he was talking about himself in that part.

[@raphaelbovey5676]

Drumming at its very very best ! Simply beautiful.

[@TwoThirdsTall]

I've seen this video at least 74 times

[@PeteBarberDrums]

Me too!

[@EliPoli64]

Same

[@CharlieViking95]

So much passion and groove. Hugely influential!

[@lifefromwithin]

I really love the sound and feeling of a vintage kit!

[@MrDrumthumper]

Epic jam at the end. Love your drums and Your cymbals. Great sound.

[@PineappleKoala]

This guy has an angelic voice, he should act

[@Nautamies]

Had exactly the same situation, I don't remember how I stumbled upon Benny's videos but damn, I instantly fell in love. It has been like 1 and half year now and damn I'm still in love. Benny is so good and musical drummer, and seems like so cool guy. And fyi, I used to be only a metal drummer, but Benny changed my whole point of view in drumming :)

[@jamesgearyjames]

Benny stop calling cymbals buttery you're making me hungry

[@hombreenojado]

+James Geary Drumming descriptions are whacked. A cymbal is "dry" if it has "wash". These cymbals are "buttery". Yet heavier cymbals aren't "wet"...

[@boazvanwi]

I really love this set-up. Every crash/ride is usable as crash and ride. so much diversity!!!!

[@bacobill]

Love the cymbals and the drumming is amazing .. as in truly amazing :)

[@ThebigLebowski33]

this is about the best recording of a drum kit i´ve heard so far...sounds fantastic...the bass sounds great too :-)

[@cia_98]

my god they sound amazing

[@Aleiuta75]

he sound's amazing

[@cia_98]

It's true, his playing is very finessed

[@mmmbetter55]

Meinl is really killing it right now. Innovating way beyond other cymbal brands

[@Celektramusic]

His grooves are to die for!!

[@technoalah]

AMAZING DRUMMER! JUST AMAZING!!!

[@bonissboy]

While I was watching, a drop of drool literally fell from my mouth on to my table. Not many things in this world can make a man willingly drool

[@SamFunk12]

i just keep watching this and just love it. AMAZING

[@beansOfJelly]

These are truly amazing!

[@MrKevchen]

How can someone dislike this? :D Great sound, great cymbals, great drumming :)

[@Decksmaster67]

Benny like always... groovy and jazzy !!! The bass man is very great

[@808breakdowns]

Everything about these cymbals sound amazing! and the way benny greb describes them with such passion just makes them that much more appealing. I must say those hi hats stood out the most to me though.

[@UnkleFunkle21]

This is the best description of drum equipment. So smart.

[@jarretkramer8471]

Love how this drum beat is so smooth and attacking at the same time!

[@vegan.yogi.drummer]

I really love and enjoy Benny's play

[@drumsetman19]

I ALWAYS love his grooves.

[@jakeallen9725]

truly an awesome drummer

[@PhilRounds]

Interesting...and Benny is great to watch and listen to!

[@pyngme3]

I don't know what's more amazing: his musical mind for coming up with the patterns, or musical ability of his body to deliver them w/ such feel.

[@gloriamenezes1924]

Thanks Benny Awesome sounds

[@patitatitatitatitona]

this sounds so good oh my god

[@Danno21F]

Wow - what a great sound. From EVERYTHING.

[@roelie2104]

These are the best sounding cymbals in the world! I have them too and they are awesome!

[@OneSaucyFellow]

Brilliant sound, man! Absolutely clear recording sound, I'm gonna have to give that 20 inch ride a try!

[@malikgcapers]

Awsome playing

[@coltongold6300]

He accent is really relaxing

[@coltongold6300]

His

[@hawkrider88]

Yea, but that pointy beard is off-putting.

[@milesfarnan9049]

right on

[@hawkrider88]

He is very well spoken. Doesn't sound like he's reading stuff that's been written for him. He's believable. Great sounding cymbals.

[@jarrahdrum]

This guy is just so inspiring. Makes me want to start eating drums and cymbals. Mmmmm, so buttery!

[@GlitchComputer]

I crush on this man! just..the drumming

[@daveruckidrums]

About a month ago, I purchased the 20" Sand Ride, and I must say even though I'm a pretty versatile drummer (mostly metal), the Sand Ride is perfect for me and it's exactly what I've been looking for for years. Thanks Benny and Meinl! Next I'm going for those hats!

[@user-ei2nu4wk8t]

I remember the day when i had dreaming ab these cymbals...and now i have all these

[@glacier2win]

I love these cymbals!

[@111connorg]

Definitely intrested in purchasing that ride, I think it may be the one I've been looking for, has the sound I need and great texture of sound to the cymbal both body and bell give a great response :)

[@andrewt248]

His kit always sounds ABSOLUTELY IMPECCABLE. Oh, and a totally insane player.

[@LandOfPerpetualJelly]

his set sounds fantastic!

[@dannyboy1731]

I love how the one handed role sounds!

[@paulvenkman]

Did anyone else scream the words "Holy Shit" when he bent that 22" Sand Crash Ride? Meinl I'm really impressed with this line up, well done on producing a fantastic cymbal range!

[@Trebia217BC]

I'm sold. Thanks for the video

[@Filipegarciamg]

They sound really nice! I love the sonors too...that floor tom sounds mean!!!

[@hewhomustbenamed987]

I have the 20 inch sand ride, and its the most amazing ride I've ever used. It goes amazingly with my 14 inch Istanbul Traditional Hi-Hats

[@AkulBhatt]

What a great sounding kit.

[@McDachpappe]

you´re not alone - sick stuff, even for a guitarist

[@gabrielmartinez1543]

Jesus man! What an inspiration! listen to the way he speaks of his musical communication mediums, a true and original musician indeed. Knows exactly what he wants to say on and off the kit.

[@Aristillus1]

Dat drum+bass groove... So good, man...

[@OzcarLinderoth]

Amazing. Just.. Amazing..

[@Hoprgras]

OMG! These cymbals are amazing! Meinls have been #1 to me for 4yrs now. I run the Byzance Brilliants, and Darks. This series pushes me over the edge. If I ever have the privilege of getting sponsored by a cymbal company, I pray to God it's Meinl. Don't know if I can play on anything else, even if it's free. They make my sound, as Mike Johnston, and Chris Coleman would put it.

[@RorshachGraffiti]

The only drummer I've ever seen to mic the shell of his snare. Haha, Benny, I love you.

[@Watos93]

the perfect set

[@920connor]

Benny Greb has the greatest sounding set up of drums and cymbals to ever be put together

[@sinborn41214]

2:55 when he bent that cymbal my jaw hit the floor

[@adgennings]

Holy shit jsut found my new cymbal set!!!!

[@riomariucci]

If anybody is wondering..... The Bassist's name is Frank Itt. Germany's busiest bassist at the moment.

[@GwilsonDrums]

I WANT THESE CYMBALS!!!!

[@jaydoode15]

this man has a sensational feel for drums and he is a genius of tone, even his voice has a nice tone to it lmao

[@rhinozzdrummer9]

amazing cymbal

[@ivansotomayor8507]

I just buy my first Meinl Cymbal, a Bycanze Sand Ride 20”. I can tell you, its my favorite cymbal ever.

[@areitomusic]

This is the best drumming demonstration I have seen so far. These cymbals sound great and the dude is a bad mofo.

[@felixweber6593]

Hi Benny, I have the opportunity to try your set of cymbals : Hihat, Thin crash and ride... and I have to say : wow... because there is a real "wow" effect when I play them... Thanks for having made this wonderful kit... It is not impossible that I purchase the kit I'm trying... Cheers !!!

[@seagraveholmes9429]

I've lost track of how many times I've watched this

[@RodolfoDemontis]

amazing!!!!!

[@NickJollyDrums]

Benny Greb is the Yoda of drums.

[@jackcroom6189]

who else thinks they should sample Benny Greb's kit for superior drummer?

[@hannes1734]

Jack Croom ME!

[@NicholasDickinson]

It's actually a 20" Sonor Designer kick drum. Sounds HUGE! Benny has some pics from in the studio on his facebook page.

[@MichaelMcCabe43]

got a set of benny greb signature sticks today, excited to use them

[@GwilsonDrums]

Great ambassador for SONOR, love those cymbals :)

[@NoonJazz]

Exactly what I did. I play jazz, have an electro jazz band and an electro pop band, and this cymbal just fits everything!

[@binge90]

My god he really is such an utterly superb drummer.

[@JacobMattDrum]

That kick is so amazing it hurts me :')

[@SmugSuspenders]

Now that's how you play a bass

[@19032able]

I have one of the 20" rides and i can assure you that it is perfect for everything!! I've found other drummers wanting it when they hear because of its sound, trust me, you can't go wrong with it :)

[@robertreedy414]

Demoing Hihats for jazz stuff looking for smooth darkness w definition too. Sand hats were at local store. When I played two bars with them on demo, I said I wanted them at any price before clerk told me they were on sale. My perfect Jazz hats!

[@jamaartyr]

The 18" crash-hats sold it for me. Good damn, that's tough

[@Davyjj]

The bass sounds soooo muahhh👊
