A custom is boring. i'd get something nice like the 14" K light hats. VERY nice hats, crisp and quite mellow. Get some nice K Custom dark crashes too, they're wonderful. a 21" A sweet ride is a classic, can't go wrong with it, quite neutral ride with plenty of wash (if that's your thing) and great bell. I have heard great things about the 21" A armand ride too, apparently quite similar to the sweet ride but nicer... I'm personally going for a set of 13" K regular hats and a 21" sweet or armand ride. Probably a 18" dark crash and 17" fast or something, both K customs. if i only had the money.... ps. lots of sound clips here, http://www.indoorstorm.com/Cymbals_Zildjia...ls-c-41_68.html
