„I like gear that I know I will never need to make excuses for; I only want to use instruments that I can just sit down, play, and will sound good to everyone. I always struggled to find that with cymbals until the first time I played a Paiste Ride Cymbal. After that moment, the choice moving forward was so clear. “
