que suenen a vieja
Cada pastor tiene sus preferencias a la hora de elegir el sonido de las mismas: los hay a los que les gustan los sonidos fuertes, “que suenen a vieja”, o aquellos que les gustan los sonidos claros, afinados, que se consiguen según el tipo de metal utilizado, el tamaño de la cencerra, el tamaño y el tipo de madera del badajo, así como la longitud del cuero que se usa para amarrar el badajo a la cencerra.
Wondering what this means here? Any help would be much appreciated.

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.
How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:
An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)
A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).
Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.
When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.
* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.
