sorry, i was talking about names then. ("Zildjian and yamaha is good only for name") offcourse i know that yamaa crafts drums over 40 yrs
. I dont know why, but their names are too old for me... i'm looking for some refreshment. like new names KUMU drums or spaun, or even dw. their drums sound better, hardware newwer, and finnishes more instresting... I never looked, and i hope will not look at ancient firms like Ludwig, Gretch, amati... Need some new stuff
ok thanx for the post, i think you missunderstund my post... i'd better choose sabian, and pearl...
...Zildjian and Yamaha are good only for names!? What kind of ignorant comment is this? Are you serious? The ancient way of cymbal making is what guys want in the Jazz world. Contemporary players want a happy medium that combines the old ways with a few of the new techniques unless you're playing some type of weird electronic music that needs a lot of "white noise" which Zildjian also provides.
...Yamaha knows how to make kits. They are craftsmen which a lot of the new companies know nothing about.

Ask "ddrum". A lot of the major records that we hear have a drum sound provided by Yamaha Drum Corp. Their product is by far one of the best out there and...key word...."TRUSTED". Top 3 to be exact.
...sure, none of us can make you like anything but coming on to the boards and stating some off the wall random comment that has no type of facts that can make anyone agree with you is just ridiculous.
...I state the obvious....Yamaha and Zildjian are not just names in the Music Industry. Go to any Pro Session with one of these Rinky Drum Company kits and see if they don't leave your junk in the trunk of your vehicle while you have to play on a Yammy, DW Ludwig or Gretsch. And yes, I did say Pro Session or Major Recording Session and not Lil' Ray Ray's studio down the skreet in a room in his crib.
