Cymbal Modification/Repair/Polishing services
When a good cymbal develops a crack, it can really be a drag.  Besides the fact that they’re expensive, good ones are hard to find! About ten years ago, when one of my favorite crashes developed a crack on the edge, I took what I learned working metal at my dad’s
body shop and put it to work on a cymbal.  And no, I’m not talking about welding.  After removing the offending crack, I cleaned up and polished the edge, so that it would be nice and smooth like the factory edge, and played it....the cymbal still sounded great!

Obviously, there is a limit to what size of a crack can be notched out without degrading the sound of the cymbal. The key is to inspect your cymbals often, and catch ‘em early.

Like many drummers, I like to have clean cymbals, but when they’re really old and green it can be very tedious. I’ve found a few techniques that allow me to get superior results compared to the old ‘elbow grease and a towel’ method we’ve been stuck with for so long.

Also, I’ve been asked to resize a few cymbals over the years, and while it is labor intensive and consequently a little pricey, it can be done. 

If you’d like me to take a look at a cymbal, or to schedule a repair, resize or polishing,
please just drop me an email.

I’ll be adding more pictures and info as time allows, but if you have a question regarding a cymbal of yours that you’d like repaired, polished, or modified, please just drop me a line.
