Review: "The Drumbal is a very cool little cymbal with a holding knob on top so that you can grab it easily to lift it on and off your snare (or any drum, for that matter). I discovered so many different ways to use this little cymbal that I spent hours playing around with it. You can lay the Drumbal on any drum, then hit the drumhead to the side of the cymbal for one effect. Or you can strike the cymbal as it lies on top of the drum, creating a white noise type of sound. I especially enjoyed holding the Drumbal in my left hand and using it to hit the snare on 2 and 4.

The Drumbal allowed me to create some very interesting new sounds and beats, with what seemed like endless possibilities. Every drummer should get his or her hands on one of these. I can’t wait to get to the studio to start recording with it."
