The End Is Fancy

Soultone Cymbals are different, because their sound is unique. You can use
the cymbals in nearly every kind of music, thats what makes them so special.
Also the time that the staffs of Sultone Cymbals take, to create your own
special Cymbal Setup!
I’ve played a lot of different brands like, Meinl (Classic Custom Dark Series),
Sabain (AAX Series) and Paiste (802). What I can say about all of them is,
that they are very expensive and not really persistent which is kinda frustrating.

The fact, that they are handmade, is what you can see at every single cymbal.
You can hear, that it's not just a job, ist more like a life task. The sound is just
incredible, in every way. Also, the dynamics that you can create by changing
the power of your playing

In fact, most of the drummers that I know are stuck in a kind of high-end-
brand addiction. They buy the cymbals of very popular brands, but they’re not
really happy with that. Soutone Cymbals could be a way out of this high-end-
brand addiction.

First of all, Soultone Cymbals helped me in the case, that I can play a Setup
that is completely well matched, and that's the first time in my whole life that I
can say that. That point causes a way better-sounding drumset and for me
personally, I have a lot more fun playing the drums now!
I can’t say that much about the Soultone Cymbals Artist Relations, cause I’m
new in this game, but I definitely can’t do anything bad. It’s a 100% positive
experience for me
