- That word means nothing chez hazelshould! I have this K CUSTOM SESSION right here in my hands! And you can hear it do you can buy with confidence!
- Fantastic stick definition - which indeed makes this one very GADD-like. Dark and medium low - it could easily pass as a 22”.
- No Longer Made Zildjian Steve Gadd model K Custom Session 20” Ride in fantastic condition!
- This beauty was modeled directly after his personal cymbals according to Zildjian.
- Here's what Zildjian has to say about this beauty:
"The popular Session series is the culmination of several years work between Steve Gadd and the Zildjian Sound Lab to duplicate his classic and sought-after cymbal sound. 14" HiHats and 18" Ride were modeled directly after Steve's personal cymbals with the 16" and 18" Crashes representing Steve's favorite crash sounds."
- And that is accurate.
- The weight is 2696 grams and the bell is unhammered and solid as hell! The plain of the ride is unlathed but hammered. The finish is brilliant.
- What's nice about this particular 20” is that the pitch is not as high as you may expect. It's a great low pitch with the capacity to cut and has the body. It sounds a bit more mellow than the original K Custom and it’s definitely drier. The stick attack is phenomenal.
- DRY. Fairly dark. Solid bell. Lower in pitch. Controlled. Focused. Chime-like attack. Controlled sustain. Quick decay.
- Perfect for absolutely any genre at any volume. As versatile as the man who inspired it.
- Amazing shape. No issues.
- A felicitous tribute to one of the greatest and collectible. No longer made.
- Don’t guess on what your cymbal sounds like. Know.
