Continually impressive work as always, Tim. Love this shit. The original was a lovely compliment to that 18”, and the modified version was super nice as well.
For my taste and use I like the modified version best, at least from hearing it “behind the drums”. Really nice cymbal. That Bop Memphis R&B stick is reminiscent of the Buddy Rich stick. In fact it is nearly identical to his stick unlike current models that bear his name.
I love the sound of the final version. I haven’t personally been able to connect with paper thin rides but with your touch and those sticks it sounds phenomenal in the recording. Btw I was super interested in the discussion about sticks and how they affect cymbal sound. If you’re ever looking for topics for future videos, I bet a lot us would learn a lot from your thoughts on how stick variables elicit different sounds from the same cymbal. Thanks!
The modification helped a lot. It took out the hollow fundamental hum that was present. It seems that the mod took out some tension away, opened it up, and brighten the cymbal. Bravo, Tim! 🎉🎉🎉🎉
I love the depth and silences between the lower and higher frequencies. The mid tones are still there but more mysterious than mid tones usually are. I’m proud to say I got my first TR cymbal. I’ve been keeping my out for something here in Australia. It’s a 20 inch 1720 g labyrinth September 2021. So yeah, light. Yes, light sticks give so much more control and broaden the application within a given musical spectrum There is a brashness that sold me on this cymbal. I have a great sense of there being ong explorative hours ahead with this cymbal.
I like them for different reasons. The original would be so useful and versatile, I feel (as a non jazz guy). But the second version has so much character and is a lot of fun to listen to.
Hell yes bopworks, those sticks are in a league all of their own, I started using the art blakey models about 6 months ago and they're the best sticks I've ever used.
love it! Timothy does the best work, is so easy to work with and can make whatever your musical heart desires for your personally curated cymbal sounds
I'm new to this channel. This is awesome. Why would this man share all this knowledge with nothing in return? It is pretty obvious; This man is in love. He loves his trade so much that he can't keep it to himself. Thank you for sharing sir.

The result sounds amazing, every cafe drummers dream. One of your best

What a beautiful cymbal. I liked the mod even better.
Like the mod better than the original. Awesome

knocked it outta the park !! Love the final version. Interesting sticks as well - was unaware of this brand

What you did is absolutely incredible, thats a terrific cymbal Tim !
Great video Tim! I prefer the original version, but I think you did great with what the customer wanted!

What an art to absolutely appreciate. Uncanny the resemblance in tone. 💪🫵

The last sound bite was a much more enjoyable sound
It's impressive the way you matched the new cymbal sound with the old 18" one. About the cymbal you crafted, I can't say witch version is better.
I love the transformation ! I wonder what you could do to a Paiste 20 ride I have !
Wonderful instrument! Maybe big band before modification and small group after?
Both versions sound great. The heavier one would probably be more my speed personally though
Sweet cymbal!
I am not a jazz player but I think the original one sounded much nicer than the paper thin mod
I don't do paper thin, but compared to my heavy hitter counterparts I go through less cymbals cuz I went to use medium thin/ thin
I really like both versions of this cymbal…. before and after modifications
