I was at scottish drum day at the weekend and not even really looking for cymbals, but as I passed the Stagg stall and heard a couple of the sounds coming out of there I couldn't help but have a peek.

This "peek" actually ended up in me spending the humble sum of £30 for a DH exo 14" medium thin crash cymbal. And it sounds... well..... all the more sweeter knowing how much I paid for it.

No, but really, in all honesty, it is immense!!! It rings for just the right amount of time, has that nice hand-hammered 'crash' to it and basically does everything I need it to do. I mean, i'm no expert, but I certainly know what I like and this just does it for me. I'm looking for the matching hi-hats as I speak.

Just thought you all may like to know about this strange and unexpected improvement to the massive ex-laughing stock which is stagg cymbals...

I have heard good things about stagg for the price. To bad they're hard to come by where I live :D

Stagg cymbals can be really decent, but like wuhans, try before you buy. Among a multitude of 'farts' will emerge a gem!

Try www.guitarampkeyboard.com the prices are pretty good and they have almost all of the DH range. Er- I think. Not the 14" crash though...
