MARTIN LOPEZ

[Alaska]

Can anyone tell my what cymbals Martin uses? I know he uses Sabians but which ones.

 

[affinityband]

He doesnt use any symbals according to the Opeth site.

 

[:Wreath:]

You mean.. the sound of the cymbals on the albums... are just beat box? Man, he really is talented...

 

[Autumnal]

Actually yeah, all beat box. If you look closely at all the old Fat Boys and Run DMC album covers you can actually see Lopez in the background with a short jericurl, a gigantic gold chain, and a big cheesy grin. Lo-PEZ Dispenser they called him. BTW, an Opeth cover of Rock-Box would be sweet.

[Alaska]

I'm serious... i looked and i cant find any info on it.

 

[:Wreath:]

I'd still go for the beat box, cause the sound of Opeths cymbals is like SO unreal !

 

[DivineEmperor]

He uses Sabian cymbals.

 

[:Wreath:]

What the hell? You?

Alaska, It really depends, Its like on the DVD he has a huge kit in the studio not when he is playing live. theres only so many sabian cymbals that sabian actually make, and i reckon that he has most of them. Your spoilt for choice. And lets face it, cymbals are cymbals.

He uses the top-of-the-line "Hand Hammered" series as evident on the Lamentations DVD.

 

[DivineEmperor]

He has had one maybe two HH cymbals in the past, I doubt he uses them much still. No drummer is going to use the same cymbals all the time. Theres no way to know exactly what types he uses. Right now I can tell you he HAS used: 14" AA Regular Hats, 19" AAXplosion Crash, 18" HHX China, and 7" 9" and 11" Max Splashes. But that doesn't mean hes using them now. Hes endorsed by Sabian, he has a shit load of cymbals to chose from all the time.

 

[possessed]

He is not endorsed bt Sabian.

[DivineEmperor]

He is too endorsed by Sabian you fuckass. Just because he's not on the site doesn't mean he's not endorsed. Research before you start typing out of your ass.

I don't lie
