Big Paistes sound really good, the smaller ones I think speak with a more defined higher pitch, the bigger ones sit better in grooves.

I wish he would have replicated Stewart's old setup! RUDES!

He's not using Rudes, but it looks like Vinnie is positioning his ride in the Copeland position, moving his 2nd crash where his ride usually sits.

A 24" in the original position puts the bell at the end of your elbow (in terms of reach).

Just out of curiousity, what kind of drummer would you consider Vinnie? If you had to pin it down.
