Soultone Cymbals have character. They impress me with how they approach the working drummer, and treat their drummers equally with respect, support, and appreciation for simply loving their respective approaches to being a drummer. They have mastered how they market their cymbals by showing the world, the true genuine sound of their cymbals. They have drummers of every age, background, and skill level on their roster, all of which, exude pride in the cymbals they choose to play from the Soultone line up. After playing all the major brands out there over the last forty plus years, I can honestly say, Soultone Cymbals exhibit an exceptional level of quality, sound, and presence, not found in any of the major brands on the market. More importantly, Soultone allows you to create your own sound, and it feels more personal when I play their cymbals, cymbals that finally feel like they are my own.

I have answered all these questions in #1, however, Soultone Cymbals are so phenomenal, I can expand upon my previous answers for any drummer looking to stand out from the crowd. The first gig I played my Soultone Cymbals, I was immediately impressed with the sound, and my band leader, absolutely verbalized how impressed with the sound. He loved the cymbals I previously played yet was floored within the first songs we played with my new Soultone Cymbals. I received so many compliments from the sound of my Soultone set up from musicians and fans alike. I cannot say enough about the quality of my Soultone Cymbals. They simply sound amazing, extremely musical, are aesthetically gorgeous, and the quality the best I have played. My favorite Soultone Cymbal in my set up is emphatically my 21” Extreme Ride. It is so versatile, plays well with all our styles of music, and the bell is to die for…perfecto!! Any drummer reading this, you absolutely need to try Soultone Cymbals right now. It will be the best decision you can make in creating your unique sound which is your drumming signature. Stand alone in the crowd and sound your best. Soultone Cymbals will help you create YOUR sound.

I am new to the roster and am extremely grateful for this incredible opportunity. Soultone Cymbals simply took the chance on me, added me to their roster of incredible drummers, and from the beginning, allowed me to create my sound, with the added touch, of truly personalizing my cymbals. They stand alone in all aspects of treating their artists with respect, integrity, and pride. I have felt genuinely welcome from the moment I received the formidable letter letting me know they accepted me to their roster. I feel proud to represent Soultone Cymbals, and absolutely adore playing their cymbals. I hope to build a fantastic relationship with them for years to come.

Update: I've played Soultone Cymbals for almost one year and over 100 gigs since joining. They have truly lived up to their reputation, still sound phenonmenal and have been played in every venue. I plan on adding some new cymbals from the various lines and looking forward to visiting them in California June 2023.
