Here’s a list of the gear that I’m selling, I have pictures of each of these online if you want to see them. I posted the item, the list price according to the manufacturer, the price if you were to buy it from Interstate Music online (who had almost everything on the list, prices are comparable to Guitar Center, Daddy’s, etc.) and finally, the price that I’m asking for them.

I’m posting them here first due to my undying love for the local scene and Aaron & his site, then my music-related MySpace page, but I’m not going the eBay route. Seriously, fuck paying them to sell shit that I can sell myself, and fuck paying shipping too. If you can read this, you’re not that far away, we could meet up somewhere and handle a transaction in person.

6” Zildjian A Custom Splash (List: $131, IM price: $75, My price: $40)
9” LP Ice Bell (List: $94, IM price: $61, my price: $30) (*SOLD)
10” Sabian XS20 Splash (List: $122, IM price: $69 my price: $30)
12” Sabian AA Splash (List: $202, IM price: $109, my price: $50)
12” Wuhan China (List: $187hahaha, IM price: $19, my price: $10) (*SOLD)
12” Wuhan Splash (List: $60, IM price: $30, my price: $15) (*SOLD)
13” Zildjian A Custom Hi-hats (List: $470, IM price: $269, my price: $150) (*SOLD)
14” Zildjian ZBT Hi-hat bottom (List: N/A, IM price: N/A, my price: $25)
(I used this as a left hand ride, nice ping to it.)
14” Zildjian A Custom Crash (List: $263, IM price: $149, my price: $75)
(Single ¼” crack along the edge, still sounds great.)
18” Paiste PXT5 China (List: $148, IM price: $82, my price: $40) (*SOLD)
19” Zildjian Z Custom Rock Crash (List: $370, IM price: $209, my price: $100) (*SOLD)

All of these cymbals are in great condition, no cracks or breaks unless otherwise noted. The photos that I took are my actual cymbals, and if you end up seeing the pictures, let me apologize in advance for all the fingerprints and smudges that are currently on them. I haven’t touched them in weeks, much less had a chance to clean them up. Before I sell anything, I’ll be sure to clean it completely and shine it up as nice as possible.

I’ll add a list of the stuff that’s in good/fair condition later, with cheaper prices than this stuff. Most of it is not in the greatest shape, some have minor cracks, etc., but none of it is really terrible. I’m not going to waste pictures on them. I’ll just be as accurate as I can with the description though. The completely awful stuff, well, I’ll pretty much give that shit away if you buy something. That list will come later too.

Anyway, if you’re interested in any of this stuff, hit me up on AIM (KnifeStreet) or my music MySpace (http://www.myspace.com/theaccurseddrummer )
Please, DON’T PM me here, I rarely have the sense to look if I’ve got a PM, I pretty much forget it’s even an option here. All this shit’s getting sold first come, first serve folks, and if you say you’ll buy something and don’t, well, shit happens, I’ll just re-list it.

Here’s the list of stuff that’s battered, but still useful. I’ll describe the defects as best I can, so hopefully I won’t have to take pictures…

10” Sabian XS20 Splash, 2 ½” with a crack inside, running along the bell, looks like hell, but it plays well and was on the kit right up until I bought the new shit. Kinda has a trashy sound to it. $10

12” Zildjian A Custom Splash with three ½” cracks along the outside edge, still has a great sound and projects well. $15

12” Sabian Splash, label’s been worn off completely so I can’t be sure what series/model it is. Very thin cymbal with some little nicks & dings, as well as 3 cracks on the outside rim, two are about ¼”, one closer to ½". Along the mount opening, there are several minor cracks, but stick it on a rubber mount and it’ll work fine. Very thin, so with the cracks it sounds very trashy, but it still has good sustain and can still be heard. $10

12” Sabian AAX Mini-Chinese with a 3 ½” crack along the bend between the edge & ride area. You’d think a 3 ½” crack would sound like shit, but surprisingly it doesn’t. I've taken it off my kit three times, so I liked it enough to add it back on there twice. It kills the sustain, so this would be used as an accent cymbal, really trashy & fast attack, but it doesn’t last long. $15

And here’s the not good, not even good enough to be called bad, but seriously ugly…

This shit is all FREE with another purchase, if for some sad reason you really want it.

13” Sabian AASomething-or-other. This has a massive crack that’s been drilled twice, and it’s still spreading. Good for adding to a trash stack if you like aggro sounds, but otherwise only useful as scrap metal.

14” ZBT Hi-hat top. Yes, the twin from the aforementioned ZBT bottom that I used as a left hand ride. It looks like a retarded shark has taken a bite out of it. If you buy the bottom, and are a glutton for punishment, hell, I’ll send you this for shits & giggles. Maybe, if you have the hookups, you could get someone to machine it down to 10 or 12” for a nice clangy sounding effect cymbal, or way down to 6” for a bell sound.

16” Zildjian A Custom Fast Crash. Another cymbal that looks as if someone got hungry for metal, literally. It doesn’t sound bad at all, in fact it sounds great considering it’s missing a chunk for fuck’s sake. I would say it’s great for a practice kit, but use el cheapo sticks, the sharpened corners of the missing chunk will shred sticks.

18” Sabian B8Pro China. This cymbal was a piece of shit when I bought it, much less after I cracked the fuck out of it. There’s literally a 6” crack through the diameter, from the edge almost to the bottom of the bell. Yes, one third of the diameter. It sounds like crap, looks like crap and should only be used in conjunction with other fucked up cymbals to reproduce that wet boot hitting a trash can lid sound.

18” Zildjian A Custom Crash, not sure which, medium maybe? This is another one that sounds pretty good, but has a chunk missing along the edge, maybe 1” deep and 3-4” long. The crack is still spreading, but drilling it would help. I say this cymbal’s fine for practice kits, but again, not worthy of a show.

And finally 18” Zildjian Z Custom Rock Crash. This thing is heavy and looks like it got stabbed, twice, sporting a pair of matching 3” cracks along the ride area that met happily one day. The cracks have been drilled on opposite ends and in between them where a chunk was lost, maybe the size of a dime. Another beater, but it’s got a decent bell sound.

There you have it.

That's the problem with a cymbal I have to replace. It sounds fine just cracked around the bell so I know it's only a matter of time.

I needa upgrade some cymbal stands too. I hate playing drums. Too much money.
