Cymbals
This desirable information is still being compiled. I can tell you that Ringo used Ajax, SIMO Standard (UFIP), Zyn, Super Zyn, Zildjian & Paiste. Stay tuned.
To start the journey of learning about the cymbals that Ringo used is more complicated than the typical answer that he used all Zildjian 14-inch hi-hats with 18 & 20-inch crash/ride cymbals
Let's step back to 1959/60 when Ringo used his Ajax Edgware drum kit with Rory Storm & The Hurricanes.
