There is a lot of controversy about cymbal cleaning. Some people think that cymbals colored brown or green from decades of sweat, dirt, smoke, and other environmental elements sound better than new, minty-fresh cymbals. Others feel like cleaning your cymbals removes some mystical magic or musical mojo which can only come from time and use.
In this video, you can hear the true 'Before & After' sonic effect that comes from cleaning a vintage 22" Zilco ride cymbal from the late 60's / early 70's (made from Zildjian's world-famous B20 bronze). We'll get past the superstition and let you hear the difference for yourself.
Using the Session Ace™ SHINE cymbal cleaner and a special textured scrubber glove (available FOR FREE with every 16oz. bottle of the cleaner), Brian show you how to clean your own cymbal safely in real time!
He also covers some best practices for protecting the shape and surface of your cymbals while cleaning your cymbals.
In the end, Brian shows you how Session Ace™ SHINE lifts decades of dirt, grime, and other sound dampening caustics out of the grooves of any cymbal to release the full, true, singing tone of your beloved bronze.
There is no sonic magic in all of that greasy gunk that coats many of your cymbals. If anything, it is muting the beautiful, full-bodied tone that you cymbals were meant to add to the music that you play. Find out how to restore your cymbals' original luster and sound with Session Ace™ SHINE!
