History

Originally the Cup Chimes were part of the 2002 series. Later they got moved into the Exotic Percussion series, only to return to the 2002 fold a few years later. Originally they were numbered from 1 to 7 and the sizes calculated from centimeter to fraction of inches. The inch sizes eventually got streamlined to full or half inches later on. The following table shows the numbering and different measurements:

Cup Chimes No. 1 No. 2 No. 3 No. 4 No. 5 No. 6 No. 7
Original in inches 8" 7½" 6¾" 6⅜" 5⅞" 5⅜" 4⅞"
Current in inches 8" 7.5" 7" 6.5" 6" 5.5" 5"
In Centimeters 20 19 17 16 15 14 12.5
