What’s your favorite Stack combination?

[chadvitale]

There's no other video like this on the internet about stack cymbals. I really couldn't have loved it any more. Great variety, very intelligent commentary and killer playing. Well done.

[melissa.deklerk]

I love when he puts the splash on top of the trash crash, plays it and just says "nice" 😂 That's what I was thinking too. "Nice".
Such a good video, and is inspiring me to look for effects cymbals to put on top of my existing ones to make the sound more interesting.

[hugorezende]

This drummer rocks, great solid playing from him

[marioa]

Everything in this video is amazing, the explanation, the variety, the playing. Great video

[joegillie]

Brilliant vis for sure.
Went into exactly what i was hoping for and great examples!!
Thanks for making this chap, awesome

[arbofr]

Great video! I wondered what I was going to do with my unused cymbals. I'l be use them now to create my own stack!!!

[iantouzel]

great video, and that drum finish is magnificent

[DirtySkRatStaney]

I have a 18” trash crash that’s cracked that I throw a 10” splash on and it sounds awesome! Way better than the two sound separately…

[mogmason]

Them little Benny Greb hats are really cool. They remind me of the Sabian hats that Terry Bozzio uses on his huge kit each side of his snare.

I’d mount them over my right kick, just like Terry does, where most drummers would put a cowbell.

Meinl stacks are literally the best sounding stacks. They are very pricey but man they are great. I have the Matt garstka fat stack which is my favorite stack ever. Also have the Luke Holland bullet stack and Benny greb crasher hats. All of them are just so good and have their own voice for different situations but the garstka fat stack never leaves my kit cause it’s versatile for everything. It’s an extra dry dirty sounding stack which is smooth and buttery for lower volumes but cuts through for metal and louder music too.

[jonesyDRUMZ]

The Bullet Stack has always been one of the best sounding stacks on the market. Aggressive bite with quick decay. You won’t find that sound in any other stack. The only downside is the Trash crash on the bottom is super thin and easily cracks.

[fernandomarques]

We have to consider, without a doubt, the whole new "world" that these cymbal combinations can offer. However, it comes to my mind the possible risk of some damage, that some combinations can bring dued to tightning. Isn´t there the risk of some crack involved (short or long term)? Namely when you join smaller to bigger ones, or their shapes are inverted? I enjoyed the video, and your work in demonstration, very clear and concise. I also loved the kit, a very good combination (combo), with a punchy and solid sound (not too profound, but resonating as wanted. Nice snare with a wide mid/bass response sound and attack. I own some Drum Craft material and they are good, but I don´t know this model, the 6 Series. What kind of wood is it made of? Once again, my congratulations, and keep up the good work.

Cool vid ❤
What is this drum kit model and what drum heads. ?? Thnxx brothers

[bokajllensch]

For this purpose I would have preferred a close mic to the cymbal being mixed in.

[WhatNowRobert]

What's the second version you refer to at 01:51?

[gregordiezemann-iozd]

Der Zultan slap clap klingt wesentlich komplexer, als der von meinl und damit besser(kostet nur knapp die Hälfte des preises)😂😂!

[nojnoj]

It's called the smack stack because you need a smack if you pay that extortionate price for some bent rejected metal...
