Re: The Dream Cymbals (and gongs) Thread.

[61'.]

I've always loved his sound and work so should really be great. I wanna try to get a reverse ultra thin china.. I saw a 20" one of the PDF and loved it..

[J.]

Hey Jeffrey, how are the pocket hats?

I love them man!
really versitlie actually.

[61'.]

that's great! hey, do you know what combo JJ uses? what hats does steve jordan use? I think there 16"?

[Dave-the-drummer]

Kyle, JJ uses for JM:
- 18" K const. over 18" A rock

for DB:
- 17" A custom over Z custom

Not sure about steve, i know he used 17" paiste's for a while but not sure now.

[Matt]

He used 15" Traditional Hats for Where The Light Is....


At least i think so...

[Dave-the-drummer]

also just remembered sometimes jj also uses 16" k lights with DB.

[J.]

He used 15" Traditional Hats for Where The Light Is....


At least i think so...

yeah that's what I think aswell.

then his usual 17" trad hats for the side kit.

how do you think your dream hi hats compare to steve's 15"s on WTLI??

and ooh I played some 13" dream bliss hats at forks. those were the best sounding hats in the store. hands down.

and I finally just got around to removing the logos from my vintage bliss.

[Matt]

similiar, but not the same, i'd say my dreams are a little trashier.

[J.]

yeah I imagine they would be. paiste doesn't know trash.

[Levi.]

So guys, last night I might have ordered a Dream.

It's the second one, #589. What do y'all think?

Also Jeffrey, what do you use to remove your logos? I used nail polish remover on some B8's, and it left an ugly sort of ghost mark.

[Matt]

i like it man, congrats!

[Levi.]

Thanks. I can't wait to get it. It should be here by mid next week, which is cool. I don't have to wait 3 months like Ash.

[Matt]

yeah, be sure to get some pics!

it it going to be a crash or a ride?

[Levi.]

I will.

Both. I'll have it where Jeffrey has his most of the time. Then I might move it over to my left side sometimes as my main crash and give the Meinl a rest. If I do that I'll bring the china back. It should be fun having another cymbal to play around with.

[Matt]

yeah, i just couldn't remember your cymbal inventory....

[Levi.]

Yeah, it's

22" Contact
18" Meinl Amun Medium
14" Contact hats
20" China
And soon
20" Vintage.

[InSight.]

Yeah, what does everyone use to remove cymbal logos? Like, a household item? I want to remove the logo's from me Pearls, and hopefully do some hammering and lathing down the track.

[J.]

awesome cymbal Levi!!! sounds like a beauty!

I just used nail polish remover... took the dream logos right off.

[InSight.]

So you place it on the cymbal, then what? Wait?

[Levi.]

Thanks Jeffrey. What do you think, not too washy?

Yeah, it looks like it did a good job on your Dream's, but I think I might have seen a little ghosting on you AA top hat. Maybe the nail polish remover reacts to Sabian's coating or something.

[InSight.]

I have come to a conclusion: PEARL CYMBAL LOGO'S DO NOT COME OFF!
The ink is some sort of space-age, Nasa-developed, death-defying super ink.

[Levi.]

I'm going to try it on my Pearl hats right now, so we'll see.

[InSight.]

They scrape off! Lightly scraped with a screwdriver.

[Levi.]

I'm sitting here with a razor blade doing mine. They'll come off, but it might take a while.

[InSight.]

Yeah, I'll just try not to make some new tonal grooves :p They flake off fairly quickly at some points.
