The Paiste 900 Series 22" Heavy Ride Cymbal is serious bang for your buck. Crafted from Paiste's legendary CuSn8 bronze alloy, and refined with Swiss craftsmanship by hand hammering and lathing, this heavyweight ride has a special darker finish that amplifies the lathing grooves and hammer marks for a gorgeous appearance that blends roughness and elegance. The thickness gives it a slightly higher pitch than the standard ride, but it maintains a fantastic balance between bright and dark with complex, washy overtones. Sustain is controllable with enough volume for pretty much any type of music you can think of. Check out demos of Paiste 900 cymbals at Drum Center of Portsmouth.
