  11. En la vida habría pensado que los #Zildjian son considerados #baratos. Pero pues evidentemente sí lo son.

    Eso me pasa por ser perrada. Naconozco los címbalos finos.

  12. Do any of you #musicians out there have stories about switching from one brand of gear to another and then regretting that decision? E.g., I recently bought some #Paiste cymbals only to realize that I prefer the #Zildjian cymbals I've played pretty much my whole life. Thank heavens I hadn't sold my Zildjians! 🥁 #musicproduction

  17. Situation:

    I've played #Zildjian cymbals for close to 40 years and only now got the nerve to puck up a set of #Paiste cymbals.

    I've been playing them.

    They're really cool.

    But this switch is a super (not musically) funky experience.

    Everything is way different.

    I'm thinking that if I were a guitarist it would be like moving from a trusty Strat or Tele to a Flying V or a Jackson?

    Does that make sense?
