I have been playing since 1968. I have had my share of Zildjians and his brother that defected to Canada, S.A.B.I.A.N. You guys will be wasting your money. Please save a little and get Paiste signatures. I'm not a dealer but a guy that wishes you don't make the same mistake I did. Sound Formula is the same alloy as sig's but made in Germany to save money. In the 70's, I used to spend hours at the music store banging on each Zildjian hoping I could find a match to what I have. "I wonder why Steve Smith lived across the street from the Zildjian factory". I have sig's that are cracked and sound perfect. I bought then that way so I wouldn't pawn them. I fell like your DAD but I don't want to preach at you guys/gals. I was there. I just think the lower cymbals are junk and they target the youngsters.
So basically, you're saying that we shouldn't waste on money on lower end Zildjians and Sabians and should go straight to the Paiste Signatures?
