    I've been a fan of yours since 12-14 years ago.
    My favorite ride cymbal is 2206.
    You're the best..

    It's such an amazing set of instruments. We've all been drooling around and learning from this video for so many years. This has been a reference for me when buying Ks and Spizzichinos for a long time, and I've learnt a lot from this. My heartfelt congratulations and thank you for sharing and making this public Matthias. - Weimin

    Incredible. Every cymbal is a jewel. My favourites are, no suprise, the setup at 7:55 : Elvin on the left and Tony on right 😂 Thank you so much for sharing!

    There was a time until the mid 70s when each cymbal was unique in its sound character and it was quite adventurous to look around for a new one. Then came the time of mass instead of class, it was Big business and prizes went up drasticly.

    2:22 That’s the point when you don’t think about technique and just get in the zone. Letting the music, rhythm, groove, and feel take over. Brilliant musicianship!

      Sure, You hit the nail...but only for this video. This "dog" in particular plays perfectly in small and intimate bar setups - heard by the audience - and projects the typical old K' sound into the listening room, you can also play very quietly with the thing, which in turn makes your fellow musicians happy.😻
