4.8/5
The visible cell wall structure is off-set from one side to the other to flex and respond while still supporting the weight of the cymbal.
Engineered with 5 touch points to minimize contact with the cymbals, which provides cleaner longer lasting tone.
Wedgie's premium cymbal washers are more durable than the traditional felt variety, which peel apart over time.
Drummers have premium cymbal washers made out of a high quality elastomer (rubber).

It effectively separates your cymbal from the rest of the stand. I thought the ride was a little cleaner and that there was more sustain on the hi-hats and crash cymbals. They will undoubtedly outlive old felts, which appear to lose their shape and functionality over time. That issue won't arise with these. Highly recommended for all players of that level. Stay safe and carry on drumming!

Two weeks ago, on a Friday night. My band and I just finished an opening set. Before the next act sets up, we have approximately 10 minutes to dismantle the stage and leave. I'm exhausted, and the previous set and last night's hangover have left my hands trembling. After we finish our last note, I leap to my feet and begin tearing down the cymbal stands. The crash cymbal's wingnut is thrown off by my trembling hands. It keeps spinning and spinning. It leaps off the stand's top, bounces once, and vanishes. I must have lost 25 wingnuts in this manner.Last week on Friday night. I was pouring my heart and sweat out on stage with my freshly fitted Vater Slick Nuts on my cymbals. Ten minutes to disassemble. I raise my crash cymbal in my hand. I depress the Slick Nut's tiny brass button. The top detaches. I chuckle to myself as I pack up the cymbal. Oh my God, that was simple.Seriously. This aspirin works quickly to relieve the on-going headache, which is like a wingnut that keeps twisting and suddenly pops out, sending you to your knees. The item includes the black slick nut shown in the picture, along with a thin piece of felt with an adhesive back (I didn't need it, but I'll keep it around), a small hex key (allen wrench), and instructions. You can tighten the slick nut to lock it onto the treads of your stand by using the allen wrench. If you had a house kit and needed to prevent the cymbals from being taken, I believe this could be useful. They utterly defeat the majority of your objectives in looking at this goods in the first place.The ability to precisely position where the Slick Nut should lay on the threads and have it stay there is one unmentioned feature that I was glad to hear about. Thus, if you ordinarily tighten the wingnut and choke the cymbal, you can instead fully depress the Slick Nut before releasing the button. Simply allow space if you want the cymbal to be able to move freely. I own five drum sets. These will be purchased for all of my kits.

Marie is here whining excessively about "Amazon's customer support," yet Music 123 is the true issue. I've purchased a LOT of music-related items on Amazon and have only had positive experiences. Despite reading Marie's terrifying story, I still ordered this song from Music 123. The Sabian drum pad appears to be advertised by Music 123, but the order number they used in their advertisement actually results in the delivery of a cowbell. They simply leave things as they are, despite the fact that at least one irate client (Marie) received the incorrect item. So, like Marie, I placed an order for the cowbell and the drum pad. I get in touch with Music 123 and let them know I'd like to exchange the incorrect item they supplied for the correct one. First, they inform me that because "it was sold on Amazon marketplace," they can only issue a refund and cannot swap the item. (Can anyone say "bait and switch"?) I get in touch with Music 123 once more after having trouble getting a UPS pickup to return the item, and this time they tell me they WON'T PAY FOR THE RETURN SHIPPING. How come? They inform me that "You ordered a cowbell." Then I lose my cool and tell them that in my initial message to them, I had stated they had sent the wrong item, copied and pasted my Amazon order, etc.But here's the thing: After enduring all of this abuse from the vendor, I contact Amazon and submit a claim using their quick, straightforward, and fair method. You do it online by clicking links and sending emails with descriptions of your issues instead of calling them. They actually file the claim on your behalf. I received a return shipping label and a refund assurance in a flash. Therefore, I would like to give Marie and anybody else reading this information that they can conduct business with Amazon with confidence. I've done literally hundreds of deals. Many of them are online market products from independent sellers. Amazon will assist you if you experience a rare problem with one of those sellers. But in my opinion, you should stay far away from Music 123.

The absence of internal dividers is the only reason I did not rate this bag 5 stars. I'm not sure where the dividers that some reviewers mentioned having came from.

In the 1980s, I worked as a gigging drummer and was a cymbal clean freak. At the time, I frequently cleaned them with the ancient Zildjian polish manufactured in Allenton, Pennsylvania. When I recently went to clean my major cymbals every two decades, I became alarmed to see that my Zildjian polish had dried up.After viewing a youtube comparison online, I decided to try this Vater Polish, and I wasn't disappointed.I took out a cymbal that I had purchased in roughly 35 years ago but had been through a flood in 1996 as a test. Even though I cleaned the dirt off the cymbal at the time, I never bothered to clean and polish it because it was a spare.I've included pictures of it from before and after. To get it this way, it took me around 4 applications, 15 minutes, and a few white cotton towels that were now BLACK because I didn't wash it before using the vater polish.This product is fantastic and is quicker and odor-free than the previous Zildjian polish!

I only got them yesterday, and I'll explore with them more today during practise, but thus far they work! The impact they make on my cowbell is what I like best about this product so far. They can truly drop the pitch without the aid of tape, allowing you to tune a cowbell without it. This is significant because you can get a cowbell to fit in the mix precisely! This product is great, and I can't believe I didn't come up with it first!
