| Good dark sounding cymbals have a great souding trashiness right from the factory. I am talking old Ks and Istanbuls and stuff like that some old As. Those I would never clean. However, some stuff like Paiste cymbals from the van halen period I would clean. I would probably polish up the right set of zildjian new beats because those are top end cymbals that like to bite and sting.
You have to just play the cymbal and see. |
