That's interesting that you guys are into cymbal sets.
I'm not, I just happen to like the 2002 line. None of them sound bad.
One of my students brought over his new Sabian AAX's the other day. I didn't think I'd hear that much of a differenc with my regular A"s. I was blown away. The AAX's sound incredible. Might be my next purchase.
I've never heard a bad sounding 2002 either. I'm a Sabian guy myself. For some reason, never liked the sound of Zildjians. They always seem to have that "Drum machine" sizzle to them.....to my ears.

In my opinion cymbals are more important than the drums so don't cheap out. I would rather have a beginner basswood set with $2k in cymbals over a $2k kit with stamped cymbals.
i've got 2002 and psyt7 splash. I think you could buy some used 2002 in good condition and use them only on recordings. 101 on rehearsals etc.
yu won't regret

I'm going to ask a stupid question since I'm a greenhorn on drums.
You guys are talking about some cymbals lasting a long time. I though cymbals lasted forever, with just normal play. I realize if you just put one on a cymbal stand without a plastic insert or a felt it could get keyholed. I didn't know cymbals ever wore out. I have 2 old Zildjian that sound great. A good friend of mine has a ride cymbal from his older brothers Ludwig set....from 1969 and it sounds sweet to my ears.
Short of getting keyholed or warped from hitting it too hard...In what way does a cymbal go bad?
