Members boxofrocks Posted January 12, 2009 Members Share Posted January 12, 2009 For Armand, think Mitch Mitchell on the ol Hendrix experience albums. That's very close to what it sounds like. Very close. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members narwhal13 Posted January 12, 2009 Members Share Posted January 12, 2009 How heavy of rock? THat Z Cuztom ride is not bad but heavy and not crashable if that matters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members jadz01 Posted January 12, 2009 Members Share Posted January 12, 2009 I have a 22" K heavy ride. Nice ping, awsome bell sound, pretty dark. It's only downside is it's not very crashable though. I dont think they make them in the 22 anymore. For me, a 20" just seems too small. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Cross Eyed Mary Posted January 12, 2009 Members Share Posted January 12, 2009 If you want a bright ride that's real washy, the Sweet Ride is a kickass cymbal.

Members drumtechdad Posted January 12, 2009 Members Share Posted January 12, 2009 I'm looking for a ride with a cutting bell, a nice ping with medium washiness...now going by that? The 20" K Custom Hybrid slays them all. Just got one for my kid, who plays rock unmiked. Ping almost as good as the ping ride, but without the unpleasant-sounding wash of that cymbal. Several sounds available from the top. Crashes really well. AND: a bell that will kill small animals at close range. Not quite the loudest ride out there but better-sounding than the loudest rides out there. Louder, better ping, and much better bell than the vintage (60s) 20" A ride it replaced. You should listen to one before making a decision. We tried every ride on your list before settling on this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
