I keep them in a well-ventilated open room but the kit was rusted out of the box when I got it, I just didn't notice when I got them because I was too excited. But the brand is Gammon Percussion! This is the link to where I bought it https://www.amazon.com/Gammon-Percussion-Complete-Cymbals-Stands/dp/B002RGPQJ0 & Okay, great! I'll write that down for future reference. :)
I went into Guitar Center and had a chance to test out the Sabian XSR Monarch hats and a 20" Monarch Ride....wow They both sounded beautiful!!
I think I may have found a winner!!
Ive wanted to do exactly what you posted for a while but not sure if there was other interest. It would be great to get him a large djembe drum. I would donate to this if you do set it up.
I bought this:
Rhythm Band Steel Cowbell 4.5 https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0006MON14/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_QhXoyb4ADBQ4S
And it turned out to be my favorite cowbell I've ever owned. Nice and solid, mid to high tone with quick decay, looks nice, hits nice
I have a cajon that doubles as a nightstand, extra chair, foot stool for reaching high things. Then every once in a while I remember its a drum and jam out! Good purchase.
So I think I know what you're after, and These might do the trick. Trashy, white noise open sound, very defined click when shut.
