The top is finely lathed like an AAX, however the bottom is lathed like a Traditional AA. And hell, that bell IS heavily hammered. The result is an unbelievably well-balanced cymbal for medium to loud settings.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSabian describes this Paragon as:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\"Extra-heavy model (8+ Ibs!) with solid hand hammered bell, this model puts out robust, clear-cutting stick definition with a balanced blend of tone.\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePure poetry!! \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWeighing in at a healthy \u003cspan class=\"il\"\u003e4174\u003c\/span\u003e grams this Peart Paragon 22\" Ride cymbal plays like a Heavy Ride. The Hand Hammered Bell measures a FAT 6\" across and supplies a piercing \"DING\" reminiscent of the Exit Stage Left \"Xanadu\" track. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAs you work your way down to the plain of this 22\", it starts to open up and the wash dances around underneath the initial stick hit. The definition REMAINS prominent. Again, this is a fairly dry 22\" with an aggressive attack. What I especially dig about this Paragon Peart Ride is that it has the power and projection that you would expect from a brighter\/heavier cymbal, however the tone has some darker leanings, which makes it a very interesting cymbal. Slightly dark with a fantastic attack and strong projection. And that's not an easy combination to find.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAn exceptionally versatile 22” that covers a lot of bases.  \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eNo issues.
