The unlathed and heavily hammered Rudes offered an unprecedented explosive cut and sustain that held up both sonically and structurally in loud volume settings. The Rude series went through many logo changes but always kept it's raw bell, unlathed surface, and talent for explosive attack and maximum projection.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAnd this No Longer Made Paiste RUDE 21\" Ride Crash is no exception. The tone is Extremely FULL and semi-dark but not as clean as a standard 2002. It's definitely more Raw in both appearance and sound. More complex. And much lower pitched. The bell sounds like a Stewart Copeland bell.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFantastic projection - yet still dark!!
