Your welcome. If you like the early stones ,Byrds, Beatles you should check out Greatest Grooves LP. They went through two different singers that had different vibes. Not a real drum based band but drummer was really solid.
Yeah, never mixed hats top/bottom. I just meant B8 hats with B20 cymbals. Anything works though. List of hats I've owned:
Zildjian new beats. 90's Blah
Zildjian Light hats. Horrible
Istanbul Mehmet ...Horrible
Paiste 2002 medium. Great for a few years . Why did I ever sell them?
Amedia...
Comparing my 2002 mediums to my vintage new beats ,they are both bright but one is very light and responsive and one is very heavy and slow to respond. Kind of makes sense why Paiste brought in B8 to keep up with the volume of amps in 1967 as opposed to Zildjian who just went heavier and...
mixing in a set of 2002 14" medium hats with my 602 20" medium ride and 18" 602 medium. Love how bright and quick they are compared to my new beats. Anyone else use the B8 hat/ B20 combo? I'm a medium-type guy!
Love mine. Very different from an acro or supra. Cannot crank the bottom head like an acrolite, or it chokes the drum. Also, prefer lower tunings with ambassador head. Acro, the opposite ,cranked with an emperor. The 2000 is Very good in the studio!
