Well I know there aren't many drummers on this part of the forum (at least compared to guitarists) but I wanted to share this. I got myself a new 21" Sabian Jojo Mayer Signature 'Fierce' Ride. Picked it up for only $275 when it sells at GC/MF for $420. There's a smaller music store near me that has some high end cymbals in stock, but clientele is mostly younger kids and beginners, so the GM hooked me up. I'm probably going to go back for new hi-hats pretty soon. For those of you who don't know him, Jojo Mayer is a SICK SICK SICK drummer, probably top 5 alive right now. Here's a pic of my ride and a video with an insane solo starting around 5:30 so you can see what the ride sounds like.
