- This is a fascinating Vintage 22” - it’s nowhere near your typical Zildjian Ping Ride or Rock Ride. This 22” plays like a true Medium LIGHT COMPLEX RIDE or MEDIUM THIN CRASH RIDE.
- Like the factory “LIGHT RIDE” - that’s the vibe. Airy and fairly complex for an A.
- Extremely Full Crash Ride - perfect for that Classic Rock tone! But play it lightly and it has a dancing, warm subtle complexity that percolates.
- With a 2926 gram weight it lives in the Medium Thin Ride to Medium Crash range for a 22”, but it has a light, mellow, bright attack that is followed by a soft and subtle, fairly complex wash. Broad spread.
- What’s amazing is that you can play this big 22” very, very lightly and softly and it still sings. The dynamic range on this one is amazing.
- Extremely well balanced with Vintage “LIGHT RIDE” leanings.
- When you open up on it and crash, it unleashes a torrent of 1Medium Full Crash tone - perfect as a big Crash, or great for Crash accents when you‘re playing at lower volumes and just need a punch.
- Fantastic 6” bell is incredible for rock, but pull out to the plain and you have one hell of a great Light Jazz or Blues Ride.
- Again, this is an incredibly versatile 22” - you don’t find a cymbal that can go from 1 - 10 and remain musical often.
- Terrific shape for being 50 years old. No issues. Gorgeous half-century old golden patina.
- Wonderfully versatile 22” from the golden age of Classic Rock.
