I thought that one would burn some cheese!

My new favourite website is rare vintage cymbals! I cannot believe how affordable/ cheap some of them are! My next ride will definately come from that site!
Im so lucky that my countries currency is worth almost double the american dollar haha unfortunately ts the shipping that gets us here.
Its good sometimes to have the sterling(£) but other times we over pay ridiculous amounts!

Well, it's really not that much of a bummer.
You can't get your license before 18 in Sweden.

You can only start learning at 17 here! I have my provisional liscense so i can drive with an adult in the car. Ill have my full liscense soon enough i hope.

And Per, i was listening to that one earlier its pretty sweet and sticky!
They (MB cymbals) are running cheaper than than all sabian and zildjian rides over here, actually running just a bit dearer than dreams so ill email matt about shipping and hopefully pick one up before the summer is out Smile

My cymbal set up will be super sexy if i pick one up!
Then i just need hats and hey presto happy me Smile

by **Dave-the-drummer** Tue Jun 30, 2009 6:50 pm

Those Matt Bettis Cymbals are this best looking cymbals out there i think! I have never seen anything like them! I thought my dream looked nice (from the photos of it) but those MB's make it look like poopoo

by sjman409 Tue Jun 30, 2009 7:42 pm

per that bettis cymbal you said not to take... i might have to

by **Dave-the-drummer** Tue Jun 30, 2009 7:53 pm

SJ, Thats pure illegal. a dirty move!
However, I say go for it! Unless Per had his heart set on buying it! If you have the cash do it!
Once i sell my cymbals im gonna email Matt about shipping and then if i can get a wee deal, ill own a Bettis Ride Wink
