Sizzling Cymbals, Metallic Drums
The Stack Ring from Stack Ring Percussion is a versatile addition to any drummer's arsenal. When placed on snare drums or toms, the keychain-like accessory both attenuates overtones and adds a distinctive metallic jingle to each hit. It also sports a magnet that keeps it firmly attached to triple-flanged, magnetized hoops at all times. Sweetwater drummers attest that the sizzler particularly shines on cymbals, due to its steel wire mounting system with two openings that let you position the ring in various ways. And, since the Stack Ring fits easily into any cymbal or stick bag, it's ready at the drop of a downbeat to deliver both gentle jingles and intense sizzles across the kit.
Stack Ring Percussion: new life for broken bronze
Handcrafted in North Carolina by professional musician and craftsman Timothy Roberts, Stack Ring Percussion was born from a simple idea: that discarded and broken cymbals can still have a voice. By repurposing salvaged bronze alongside steel and brass, Roberts and his team of skilled musician-artisans have built a line of creative percussion tools designed to expand the capabilities of a drum set. Stack Ring products can emulate electronic sounds acoustically, add unique layering textures, and bring the character of custom stacking effects within reach of any percussionist. Sweetwater drummers seek out Stack Ring creations whenever a kit needs more grit, more sizzle, or just a little extra something that the stock setup won’t deliver.
