ZILDJIAN OR SABIAN
« on: January 12, 2006, 05:13:46 PM »
What's up my drumming family!

[color=darkblue]I don't know if this topic was on a previous post, But i noticed over the years drummers switch back and forth between the 2 giant cymbal companies.  Dave Weckl was a big Zildjian endoser, but he is now Sabian
What is the difference? Are they all family.
Enlighten me Fam

GOD BLESS!

On a serious note, though, it really is your preference. Personally, I love Sabian cymbals and I use to shun Zildjian, but over the years and after much musical maturing I discovered that I like Zildjian as well. So, instead of picking and choosing I decided to have a nice cymbal palette in both brands...diversify, you know? I'm starting to get a basic Zildjian cymbal kit to switch out with my Sabians at will.

Well, let me first tell you that Dave Weckl started his career with Sabian and then he went to Zildjian.  It was a business thing why he left Zildjian.  You know, if you have the opportunity to develop your own sound with a major cymbal company, you would jump on it, right?  So now we have Sabian HHX Evo. and the New Legacy Cymbals that are coming soon.  
Anyway GO ZILDJIAN!!!! :D

I love zildjians and sabians. In my collection I have a mixture of A custom's and AAX's. They go great together in my opinon. I would get some HHX evo's but......I like to spend money on my car also lol

A cymbal is an instrument unto itself...just like your toms, and snare. You are going to be the one playing it, you need to see what sounds good in your ears. For me...its Zildjian all the way.

God Bless

hey here's a thought, lol, why not just mix them all together... :D   I think that would create a mixture of sound and you will have a diverse set of cymbals

I wouldnt recommend that. Zildjian & Sabian cymbals have different sonic characteristics. They dont mesh well together. There are people that do that, but it sounds a little off the wall. Just my opinion.

God Bless.

Sonofpaul, you are 100% right. I use to work for the country's leading music chain and had the chance to go to Canada and met Bob Zildjian. 1 of the nicest guys you could ever meet. I met his wife, Billy, and Andy. We hung out at his house, and got the chance to see the whole operation(TWICE). I even got the chance to hand hammer cymbals. It's nothing like being in the cymbal vault and picking out cymabls. I got to choose from hundreds. That was back in 96, and 97. I have a 21' stage ride aax, and 14' fast hats aax, Then the next year i got a 16' el sabor and had a rivett put in it, and a 12' china. I got them all free except for the china. And i have them all today without single crack. From that i chose sabians. I put them up against any cymbals.

Yes. Eric Moore is with Orion Cymbals out of Brazil according to a post from eith flat-fifth or spider. Orions cymbals sound hot. They finally got their site finished. They could eventually be a force to recon with.
