Awesome you will instantly start to enjoy your cymbals. I’m happy with mine and also got a 17″ crash to match.
As someone who plays in a small combo who gigs for background music, this ride is perfect. The overtone resonates through the combo without overpowering and each attack of the stick is defined and heard well by the group. I would recommend this to anyone who enjoys jazz, funk, fusion, and some other similar genres.
Here is the best review I can give. I bought this cymbal for my son and every time he takes it out of the house, grown and almost grown men come up to it and oogle. At nearly $400 bucks they know the 15 year old didn’t buy it, so they generally make their way to me going on and on about how awesome the sound is. I feel like I’ve bought my boy a Corvette.
Hi people, i’m from Brazil and bought the Zildjian K Custom Medium Ride 20” from the Japan Spirit store here in Amazon.com. The cymbal is just fantastic, i mean, the sound is full of variations and sub-sounds.. The price is great either. I’m fully satisfied. Cymbal recommended and the store either..
