Zildjian ZXT Rock 4 cymbal pack-Advice?


Yeah, me again, anyway, as a low-budget teen who only does a paper round it's kinda hard to afford lotsa stuff and still have a life, but this time, i chose the "lotsa stuff" option. I was just wondering if anyone has these cymbals, or anything similar, cos i want to know if they are worth saving up for. The Price is £299, and that includes VAT (whatever, means nothing to me anyway) and the set includes: 14" Rock HiHats, 16" Rock Crash, 20" Rock Ride and a FREE 18" Rock Crash. (copy and pasted, not selling out or anything) So yeah, is it worth it?

Honestly stay away from entry level pies from the BIG3. These are B8 sheet stamped metal cymbals. They are basically a marketing plot to younger guys to buy a "Zildjian". It's Zildjian only in name. Statistically 60% of drummers who buy entry level cymbals from brand X will eventually upgrade to their higher end products-- They gothca. I would highly recommend you check out Wuhan's new Traditional series. This line from Wuhan gives the big guys a good run for their money in this catagory. Essentially for the same price you get Cast, Hand hammered B20 bronze cymbals. They are really a decent entry level cymbal. I like them so much I use some of them myself. Check out my you tube channel, We have video's of every Wuhan from this line. They are shot in Hi-Definition with digital audio sound. The sound bites are extremely accurate. At least watch a few video's that should help in making your descion. The Link to our YT site is in my signature below. good luck T

How do you get a hold of Wuhan? I can't find their website (if they have one)
