These cymbals are great for any drummer. However if you are on a tight budget you may want to look for another set of cymbals as these are a little pricey. They are well worth the money though. I gave them a 4.5 for quality because they are obviously not as good as K Customs but they are pretty close. They have a great sound that can be applied to a variety of styles. Its no wonder that Zildjian is the best.

These cymbals are a great choice for any drummer. If your on a tight budget you may want to look for another set of cymbals as these are a little pricey. However they are well worth the money. They have just the right sound and can be added to a variety of different styles.

I've had the 14" new beats for over 10 years and I wouldn't trade them for any others. I hit hard and cracked both of my first hi-hats (zbt's) in 3 months, but these are indestructible and sound like heaven. I play with the heavy cymbal on top to get a heavy metal sound, then with the light on top for everything else. These are the the last Hi-Hats you may ever need to buy.
