walmart cymbal: sounds decent
Everyone: You werent supposed to do that.
I know right I was really expecting it to sound awful
Except the thing is it sounds nothing like a ride cymbal. Look up what a real ride cymbal sounds like and come back.
It actually sounds like a concert suspended cymbal.
Sounds like a ride cymbal to me.
$26. Sounds good!
This actually sounds great for the price. I'm impressed.
It sounds better as a crash than my crappy Sabian B8 that just rings.
It sounds better than the 20 inch planet z
ride.
@@layz_gaming_4275 what about the crash ride 18 planet z zildjian cymbals 😏
It sounds good though...
@@Pro1938ftc3ch That’s what I have
Ok is it just me or does this thing sound fucking fantastic?
Travis Garman It does through my phone speaker.
Absolutely it does
I mean if this had a well-known logo it would be into the hundreds.
Its sounds AMAZING for 20 bucks
Sounds pretty good
3 days later after this video was published, they've vanished from walmart's site...
Exactly
and probably someone got fired
I want one!!
@@FernandoArouche why?
@@br00tality50 Yes
Thank God it's unisex. I'm tired of all these girly cymbals... Smh
Mitchell Dillenbeck dying😁
😊 LOL 😊
yeah I just love that manly sound you know?
a smooshed bread lol explain to me what a manly sounds like didnt know sounds have genders to them
young musician in process You missed the joke....
Start a new series called "The Walmart Drummer"
You could start a band from what they sell.
Is it just me or...it actually sounds nice?
I mean, I've heard way worse from better brands, especially when looking for the entry lines
Bernardo Faria *cough* Meinl HCS *cough*
Its not just you, I was going to comment that
I am really surprised with the cymbal as well. Has a Paiste sound to it - Walmart - I really thought this would be a junk cymbal but for the money it's half decent and much better than the standard entry level cymbals from bigger brands. I say SCORE!
Bernardo Faria I just got back from school, it was my first time playing the kit over there, as the music department has a very low budget, they have donated cymbals and brass ones, the paiste 101 cymbals don't sound as good as this :/
I actually liked it, it had some some zildjian K/Paiste 2002 sound to it.
Zildjian: Quality cymbals at a quality price
Sabian: Can't get a better deal than this
Walmart: I don't know what I'm doing but I think I did well
It actually sounds really good
This might be the best sounding cymbal in the world, at least for that price
Honestly sounds like a 20” crash more than a ride. Overall doesn’t sound too bad for the price
Haha for the price of 23 bucks it sounds rather amazing :P
😀 Where's that K stencil?
lol
alan duncan lol I was thinking of some K sounds cymbal when I heard the sound of that ride. Sounds sweet tho
😂😂😂
Clickbait it was really $23.46
Not click bait if he isn't lying bout the symbol
@@alot5904 it's a joke idiot.

Welp...Walmart is about to run out of stock on these cymbals.
Elijah Williams there actually out of stock lol
they're
007yuval you're a douche
am i?
007yuval I think I just gave you that answer.:)
Sounds more like a crash/ride
Sounds more like a crash/crash
@@ohseespolice7419 funny to see you here
probably worth more than 20 bucks just in copper...damn...we need walmart in europe
If you were to scrap it it'd be $10.50 according to some forum post i saw..
Travis Garman so it's a $13 rental
allthings possible i really like your thinking.
The cymbal looks a lot like the Millenium B20 series that Thomann Musicstore offers, check that out. Not at that price obviously, but 89€ at the moment for the ride. I wouldn't be surprised if they came from the same factory.
Fiskaal The sounnd is almost the same too
I'm actually shocked how good it sounds. Being a b20 as well for that price isnt a bad deal for a throw away
if i hit this with my eyes closed i would honestly think it was a $400 cymbal
needs more B R A N D I N G _ A E S T H E T I C S
Probably because cymbals sound like cymbals.
Bloodbath and Beyond obviously you don't know your cymbals.
I think it works well as a crash ride.
This sounds pretty flat(one dimensional) and quite obnoxius. I wouldnt buy this even for $200..
Absolutely nothing wrong with the sound of this ride! Worst case, set it up on top of an old cracked cymbal, and you'll get a nasty stack. Cheers!
better than I'd have expected
It's cool as a flavor. It's really bright and washy. It's useable, and probably good in a live setting, but the other ride is darker and sits nicer with the rest of the kit to my ears. Thanks for the demo!
Damn! Out of stock. Thats def worth 20 bucks
I'm really glad to read coments and see that i'm not the only one who hear this "cheap" cymbal sounds doing the job
Nah too expensive.
Jamie Dove lol
Absolutely true !!!! 😊
I feel you. 😓
damn, that really has a really nice gentle sound to it.
that actually sounds better than I thought, I might even buy it! Walmart should sponsor you
I don't know, I wouldn't be proud to say "I'm a Walmart artist".
Maybe they could release a rdavidr signature 20 inch crash though, lol
Technically you would be a Monoprice artist, as Walmart just distributes them. That would be a little bit more respectable. Agree with the signature crash though, lol!
I don't know, can Monoprice hit gold on everything? I heard of a lot of products with excellent reputation, including graphics pen tablets much better than all the no-name shit we had before and almost on par with older Wacom, manufactured by Huion, including screen versions. Headphones 8323, nobody has quite figured out from which corner of China, but reportedly surprisingly good. Cables also have a good reputation. 3D printers, good solid stuff.
Now unfortunately i'm in Europe and they are not :( It's possible to order, but it's not as cheap and easy.
Siana Gearz I can say this monoprice make AWESOME cables!
I'm not a huge fan of a lot of wash on the ride but the one thing that I noticed is that there is a very distinct and glassy/clear sound from the tip of the stick when playing in the middle of the cymbal. You can actually articulate the sound of the tip along with, or IN, the wash. It doesn't get "lost" which is what I have always disliked. For $20, this is a steal and definitely a hell of a deal! One person said it is a rideable crash and that's an excellent description. Well done. Now to find one!
Dumping zildjian real quick
Therealmatthew 2 lol good one
Fantastic fucking profile pic my friend!
That ride sounds great! I didn't even know these cymbals existed. Thanks for letting us know. The Walmart website says they're made from "high-purity B20 bronze."
For the price of a single name brand 20" ride you could buy 8 or 9 of these... with 8 or 9 cymbals and some basic tooling, you could cobble together an ENTIRE custom set (1 x ride, 1 x set of hats, 2 x full size crashes, 1 x ozone, 1 x china, 1 or 2 FX cymbals, 1 x ribbon crasher).
please do it!!! I would love to see that!!
This is a job for...THE CYMBAL PROJECT. Lance, this seems like right up your alley.
That would be an AWESOME video, Lance!!
How the fuck would you make a china crash out of this
@ flops031-Bend it inside out...Silly...
That is fantastic! In the 80's, when I was struggling to find affordable drum gear, cymbals were way out of my price range. I ended up buying no-name crap from pawn shops and they usually didn't last very long. Of course, there was no internet and no Walmart so, I made due until I could afford good stuff. Drum gear finally became more affordable in the 2K's, thanks to Musician's Friend, Guitar Center and the like and I bought a Pearl Export Series 5pc. (Charcoal Metallic) for $500 added the two high toms for $185 and a Zildjian 4 pc cymbal package for $189. Also, added a Pearl, Double Eliminator pedal for $235 and the Pearl rack for $250. All of that being said, I'm definitely going to look into this Walmart cymbal, not because of the price(you can't really lose at $23) but, for that sound! Nice, bright and long decay!
Kinda nice, actually.
Big Pooter why you talking
you stink
Pooter
you've got to be kidding me ! that cymbal does not sound bad at all !
SOLD !
Monoprice makes _great_ home audio electronics for insanely low prices, I'm not surprised their cymbals are equally excellent value (though I'm surprised to find out they make cymbals at all, lol).
Dino!!!!
Same! If you actually look into their tube guitar amps, they are really amazing for the price.
i like it. its not pitchy like a sabian b8, nice deep wash, and a good middle of the road stick sound. cant beat that with a sti.....
oh....
i was vaguely interested and then i heard that this cymbal is *unisex* ! i bought one and have taken it in every public bathroom i see. mens, womens and family. god i love my unisex cymbal. rock on sexy, unisexy.
HAHAHAHA HAHAHAHA
Good meme
Surely the $20 was a mistake.. you can’t buy that much raw bronze for the equivalent money here in the UK!
this is made in the us
*buys a ride cymbal, plays it as a crash the entire time*
Alex Frank I know nothing about drums what is the difference between crash and ride?
Crash gives you the splash, while the ride gives you the zing.
The Guy On The Minibike so ride is kinda like the high-hat (the cymbal you step with your left), where beginners learn to keep tempo and eventually learn to play around for better sounds. Since you know nothing, I guess Crash can be described as the loud cymbal you hit once rather than continuous. You can call some cymbals hybrid wherein you can use them as both ride and crash.
Wasn't he playing it as a ride during the entire intro?
Alex Frank if Wal-Mart still sold this id buy it because im looking for a 20" crash and this sounds great
Reminds me of the no-name ride I used back in high school. Didn't sound altogether terrible, but the volume and sustain when used as a crash meant that it was all you were going to hear for a good 30 seconds afterward. It completely drowned out the rest of the kit when you really hit it.
It honestly sounds better as a crash, but if you try to tone down the ring some I just about guarantee it'll start sounding more like a trashcan lid than a cymbal.
looks kinda funny because of the huuuge bell, but actually sounds pretty good, not just for a $20 cymbal
I’ve been playing for 60 yrs.
I like any brand Cymbal that sounds good with two biases: love most Bosphorus, hate most Paiste. I think the Cymbal sounds great & if you consider the price, it becomes amazing.
If only every Walmart had music gear
MetalDave98 online
buy it online?
Jawdropping cymbal!
Sounds great!
It all boils down to how it stands the daily playing, durability etc...
But regarding the sound, it is a steal!
I mean it doesn't sound bad
For a Walmart cymbal I am impressed it actually sounds pretty good, and it's at a great price. And I do think it sounds well with your other ride cymbal, then again you could just use the Walmart ride as a crash, as the cymbal sounds more like a crash than a ride. Great video!!!!
Well...It sounds better than the apollo...
Hahaha, that's true
Lucas Heseding I was going to post that! That Apollo sounds like dog shit!
The Apollo was supposed to sound bad.
Shining Armor for black metal?
Holy nope! That Apollo is just amazing! I can understand if you don't love dark and dry cymbals that much, but in that category the Apollo is just one of the most amazing things I can imagine.
Its super bright, and has surprisingly decent sustain. The over tone does sound like your playing the bottom cymbal of a hi-hat pair like most cheap cymbals do. all in all I would play that cymbal. Sounds pretty awesome to me. I wasn't expecting it to sound so good.
for the price, it sounds fantastic as a crash and a ride. :)
Max Brand That thing sounds good for a lot more than that price! ;) It would sound really good to my wallet, too.
After several google searches, I no longer believe this cymbal ever existed. *Great CGI* "rdavidr" If that is your REAL Name!
Malte sold out
I think it did but once everyone heard about it vanished
Malte not only is it sold out but it’s now $62
Ok who’s the idiot? He is looking right at the cymbal and asked if it ever existed. Lmao. For a studio drummer that a pretty guitarist statement.
I feel after the move, there might be a Walmart drumset video coming
People be saying how good the ride was. BUT THAT FILL. IT WAS AMAZING!
why does it sound so good
Monoprice is actually known for making decent quality products for a ridiculously low price. I have a couple guitar pedals of theirs and they're fantastic. A buddy of mine has a Les Paul replica and it sounds surprisingly awesome! I'm a big fan of Monoprice stuff, actually, lol.
its like you have finally the 18' crash... but 19'
David Pérez Riquelme A 19 foot crash is pretty big tbh.
This actually sounds really good for $20, I'm impressed!
It sounds great. Damn you Walmart!
Hammer it! It's really not bad but it was so cheap it's worth it to see if a little bit of modification can make it a little more complex sounding.
Thought it would sound at least decent once you mentioned the B20 bronze opposed to brass, although for the quality of material that is a fantastic price as I was probably expecting some beginner-esque brass cymbal. Stagg make some pretty incredible sounding cymbals for some great price points with their bronze alloys & such.
I have a huge collection of Istanbul's and Zildians, A's, K's and old vintage ones, and this one you purchased from Walmart sounds fine. Perhaps it is your recording technique.... but great crash sound..... love it. thanks for sharing
Guys chill Its a unisex cymbal
Great clip. This is a totally usable cymbal that has character and sits in the mix nicely. Good find.
I dont even play the drums but this has to be one of my guilty pleasures.
I bought a couple of these and use them for rehearsal/practice. Saves wear and tear on my normal cymbals
That sounds better than my Zildjian Ss
$20 for a ride cymbal that's made out of B20 bronze (same material as high end cymbals), is hammered, and sounds pretty damn good. This just goes to show you how much the musical instrument industry is RIPPING OFF musicians.
Dont be confused those b20 cymbals a pressed out of plat bronze. High end good cymbals are always cast in bronze way different animal.
@@brianrubin4263 Except that cheap companies like Wuhan say they use hand hammered cast B20 right on their own website, not plate bronze. So I don't think plate vs cast is going to make a huge difference in terms of manufacturing cost. Also the alloy itself doesn't change the manufacturing cost much either, Paiste sells B8 cymbals for an arm and a leg, and A&F drum company is selling brass cymbals for friggin $400. It's all marketing hype if you ask me.
It would be cool to see you drill a bunch of holes in it much like the "100 rivets in a cymbal" video to see if it makes it quieter. Just like the Zildjian L80 low volume cymbals. It would also be great to see you make mesh,low volume drum heads. I know a great deal of people would apreciate a quality tutorial on diy low volume drum heads and cymbals.
That sounds great and crashes beautifully. And not just for the price.
That actually doesn't sound that bad for $20. It's cheap and therefore it's probably thin and therefore it will eventually probably break but, if I needed something and just didn't have the money, this could be a very good option. Or, just buy a gross of them for that price.
Heck of a crash/ride (or ride/crash) for $20ish! It's got a nice ride undercurrent and for my taste, a useful, dark crash tonality. I had no idea Wally World sold these. I'm gonna cop!
FINALLY NEW VIDS !!!!!!!!!!
GOOD DRUMMER!
when I was a kid I would have KILLED for this cymbal at this price - MAN!
Back then there were only top-shelf options from brick-n-mortar independently owned music stores. And there was little competition. Thus prices were HIGH.
Rad as hell dude. B20? Damn bro I'm gonna have to get some of these to mod. I bought a ride from Toys R Us one time and modded it but it was brass...
Nicholas Margarite i got an 16" from Toys R Us, now its a stack with a 18" Mienl HCS classic and a HCS 20" classic china
Yes! Was it a First Act brand? That's the kind I got from Toys R Us
Nicholas Margarite lelz
$23.46, regularly $139.65. You saved $116.19. Dude, you scored!!! Big time!!
Just looked for that cymbal. I only saw it for $157.
yeah because after this video was made sellers realized it sounds good. i'd buy it for $200
Walmart for you.
I’m guessing this sounds *at least* 9 and a half million times better than anyone expected.
it sounds better than the Apollo ride
I liked that lick near the end, using the hi-hat, snare and toms. Nice close!
"and the award for the dirtiest filll..." LOL
If you're wondering. Yes, it sounds nice.
One thing people don't understand about business is that price doesn't come from brands, but deals! ;)
once i get money im gonna buy one pf these it sounds great
Wow, that is a great sounding cymbal for that money. They are $70 on Walmart's webpage now, still a steal.
I like my snare to be genderneutral
I Was a Teenage Appetizer From Planet Sushi In that case, be careful with your head selection so that you don't somehow limit its freedom of expression. I have a Premier that I would've sworn was male, but maybe I've somehow limited its potential by using a coated Ambassador. I should probably stick to clear heads to avoid litigation and social media scorn.
Lmao
4:18 Dat fill doe 👍👍🔥
rdavidr: $20 Walmart Ride Cymbal!?!?!?
Also rdaivdr: *plays it like a crash the whole video*
When you hit on the edge, you make it sound more like a crash cymbal. If you would hit on the top surface 3 or 4 inches from the edge, it would sound more like a ride.
in regards to the 16" and 20" cymbal pricing,
because, capitalism.
MasoN Martin 100% true. lol
Yo that last fill was dope af. 10/10
The monoprice sounds better than the sabian 😂
Zach Johnson it does not.. it sounds flat(one dimensional) and cheap b20 cymbal.
To my ear yes I thought the Walmart symbol actually sounded better than the Sabian which sounded really flat and dead... even if you were going for a flat and dead sound for a ride I still wouldn't choose to use that symbol at all... God knows there's someone who thinks that the Sabian is the greatest symbol out there though...
Better than my old cringy ring-y sbr cymbals
Thank you I just went to their website. A lot of schools from rural and urban areas can't afford instruments this company offers an alternative for disadvantaged youth
EXPOSED: It costs 23.46 but he said 20 dollars
Tax....
Sounds bright and clean.. im buying this.
wow, honestly makes a really good sounding 19" thin crash
That might be the best crash ride on the market right now. If you're hittin like Lars it won't hold up, but Benny Greb, Sure. Great demo and dammit, great cymbal.
Sounds better than any meinl cymbal I've heard.
I've always said its not about price or brand, its what sounds right to you. This sounded quite nice. The same cymbal with a name brand logo would have been $250. lol
i fucking love that Apollo ride. I have a 24" nova and it's amazing as well. Don't listen to the hate
Christian Pitaccio
I think it's because they're Jazz symbols, and most people don't play jazz, or at least not legitimate jazz. I love the HH and the HHX models, but the XS model is amazing. My primary ride cymbal is an HH 21" Raw Bell dry ride.
Bryan Starkweather I play punk and hardcore and heavy stuff as well as jazz and soft stuff. I use that ride for everything.
Take this to my local cymbal smith, and for another $100 I'll have a $500 sounding cymbal! Fantastic!
fastest click ever
Sounded wayyyy better than I expected. My 4 year old niece wants to start playing. Think I know where I’m getting her cymbals!
I own one it's about 2 years old
Not a mic trick they really sound that good
I paid $80 for mine at Monoprice.com
Gig with it all the time
yeah, i would pick this based on hearing this video over an A series. And that was a pretty sick fill!!!!
