Title: Lets see those RIDEs!
Post by: Akira JUMBO on May 19, 2007, 11:07:47 PM
Guys for reference and to help our fellow drummers get an impression of the different RIDE's available today, could you please post your personal description/impression of your personal rides or rides that you have used for quite some time in terms of ping, stick definition, bell, crashability, wash..etc  :lol:

Expound on how how you hear them, different characteristics and traits, for what genre you think they suit best and any additional details you might want to describe them..let us interact and see if we have the same impressions (even though manufacturers claim no 2 cast cymbals are the same :-D)

Tip lang..if you could HIGHLIGHT or put in BOLD the type of cymbal to easily identify it so much the better.. :lol:

Hope this helps..



I have intentionally separated the Ride, Crash, Hi hat description thread for reference purposes to be organized that our fellow members can go directly to the cymbal that they are interested in getting an impression from rather than just one thread with mixed information for the 3 basic cymbals of the drum set. I hope this is fine with you.. :lol:

UPDATE: I have edited this thread to be a picture database for Ride cymbals as well for those who wish to share them please do post away.

ok i'll start..

Zildjian 20" K Custom Dark Ride

Suitable for Jazz and Rock too but for rock the medium thin thickness might be a concern though I have haven't seen any cracked ones yet. Very washy and very crash able, will work as a big crash if you prefer. Loud when you ride it hard but Jazzy also when ridden with a subtle approach. Bell cuts through with a mid-high pitch tone. Dark undertones indeed.  Stick definition was not clean though, a bit too washy for me. Overall a beautiful ride but not so versatile for all.


Zildjian 18" K Custom Ride

Very clean stick definition with extra sharpness when nylon stick is used. Large zilbel like bell..Loud! High pitched due to thickness (medium heavy). Minimal wash short sustain. Not crash-able..dong!!! Comments on being small has been given to me but I think it cuts through pretty well for an 18"..Gadd style hehe! Very versatile ride but for heavier music I would prefer the bigger sizes.

 :lol:

Try lang....

20" Avedis Medium Ride


I think this is a very versatile ride. What I really like about this ride is its bell, moderate to loud. Very nice stick definition, a bit washy though. I haven't crashed ride/crash rode/crash ridden :-P this one but i think its crashable...

Here are my ride cymbals:

21"  Sabian HHX Groove Ride - NIce jazzy stick definition with an airy wash that supports it.  Perfect for Jazz or Funk.  The ping will be buried in the mix if you use it for Rock but it has a nice crash riding sound, dark, warm, full wash!  Strong big sounding bell.  If you like a pingy ride, you should look somewhere else.  If you like crash riding, this is it!

22" Paiste 2oo2 Ride - The classic Rock ride sound as they say.  The ping is very clear yet it is still in perfect balance with the warm wash.  Still crashable at this size and weight.  Bell is clear and loud although its profile is a bit flat, it has its sweet spot, not the whole bell surface will have a clear full sound.  But once you get used to the sweet spot, it has a consistent solid bell sound.  Can also be used as an aggressive jazz ride cymbal.

20" Zildjian K Constantinople Light Ride - Jazzy "tick" ping sound supported by an airy wash.  The wash is like "hhaaaaahhhhh".  A very dark, warm sounding ride, very nice crash sound although the bell is not that clear.

20" Zildjian K Constantinople Medium Ride - Same character as the light ride, just more defined ping and more focused undertones.  Great also for some light rock.

I have a 21" A Zildjian ride that I think is older than me, because it bears the old hollow logo.

I have received a lot of positive comments about this ride because of its flexibility. Its bell has a very loud and defined ping, and its bow and edge produce a bright shimmering sound with beautiful overtones. It is very crashable, quite smooth to hit for a medium weight ride.

I would never trade this ride for anything else.  :-D

OT; I love this thread. Dami akong napupulot.

Wala akong ma s-share as of now. I still dont know what characteristic sound of a cymbal would suit my style, but im gassing for a 21" Avedis Sweet ride. Galing ng wash, crash, saka ng bell sound!

Keep 'em coming, guys. Nice Thread!

21" Sabian Hand Hammered Raw Bell Dry Ride

Sabian describes it this way and i for once would agree with them:

High-definition sticking with the right degree of warm, funky tone. Unlathed bell cuts with maximum clarity.

it first caught my attention when i heard it live and had a chat with Incubus' drum tech when they were in manila. my desire for it was strengthene by seeing and hearing John Blackwell Jr. use it in DrummerLive 2005. Before all these, I swore by K custom rides, well not anymore (IMHO so to speak).

Post by: inigo on May 28, 2007, 11:48:58 AM
22" K Custom Dark Ride - Low pitched ride with light overall stick definition. Good amount of wash.
BELL: dry, warm and nicely-defined without being overpowering.
BOW: woody stick definition with a lot of wash.
EDGE: Being medium-thin, this ride responds quickly when crashed.  The wash is in the mid-frequencies, EQ-wise.

20" K Custom Medium Ride - Generally bright with a hint of darkness. Brightness may be due to its unlathed underside.
BELL: loud, high-pitched, defined yet dark and hollow-sounding.
BOW: more stick definition than the Dark, with a higher-pitched wash underneath.
EDGE: Not so responsive as a Dark when crashed. Swell is slower and the overall pitch of the wash is higher.

Generally, I think K Custom Mediums and Darks are OK for alternative rock, but not very useful (or audible) for heavy rock tunes. Jazz? Semi, but not very. :D

24" 70's A Medium - Low-pitched ride that gives an illusion of a dark sound. Very versatile cymbal, believe it or not.
BELL: loud and dark, especially orgasmic if you hit it with the side of the stick.
BOW: Nice stick definition; gives you a teasing wash the first time you hit it, but builds to a roar if you hit some more.
EDGE: low-pitched wash with a slow-swelling crash; I imagine cream when I crash this cymbal.

ako gusto ko raw bell dry ride or power bell ride ng sabian, kaya lang wala ako pambili hehehe. i like rides that have solid bells tska less washy. i try to avoid mediums but ganun ang ride ko. hopefully i can buy the AA raw bell ride before xmas. hay ang tagal... :|

Zildjian 22" Platinum Ping Ride

Well what can I say its the Ping-iest ride I have ever heard. Really cuts through with defined and great stick projection. It is exactly what I have been looking for after listening to the Paragon Ride of Neil Peart wherein I found out before he switched to Sabian he was using this very cymbal in Traditional finish. The bell is also Ping LOUD and I mean really LOUD! Very suitable for heavy music. Not suitable for most Jazz I guess since it has very little wash. The size really projects the ride sound. No edge wobble as this is a medium heavy cymbal. Not quite crash-able as well but to some it is quite tolerable.  :lol:

anu ba mas ok yung hand hammered or machine hammered?? is there such thing? hehehe..wala ako mashado alam sa drums, but the mere fact na hand hammered ang isang ride, i guess mas maganda ang tunog nun. Maybe because it took several perspirations and arm stress from the maker which gives a unique sound compared to those mechanically manufactured hehehehe.... :-P
Title: Re: RIDE description thread
Post by: Akira JUMBO on September 10, 2007, 01:21:57 PM
@butoyonly

Kapatid, hand hammered is considered better than machine. As with all Western hand made items they are considered more valuable and expensive. Manual hammering as done with cast cymbals create a certain variable of sound quality compared to consistent machine hammering. Thus making each cymbal unique from the others even if they are of the same line and make.

You are probably right, its the drops of bodily liquids that probably make the cymbal more special :-D

hand vs machine hammered hmmmm

its just a question of consistency as akira pointed out. personally, i prefer machine hammered. sure hand hammered gives a unique sound but you will likely encounter more bad sounding hand hammered cymbals than machine hammered ones (speaking from experience  :evil: ).

just dont fall into the notion that hand hammered cymbals are greater than machine hammered as marketed by the cymbal companies. its your ears that will always decide for you.

2 years ago i dumped all my machine hammered cymbals (K's, A customs, AAX) to get hand hammered cymbals. right now, im collecting those same machine hammered cymbals again because they fit better in the music i play.

as we always say the drums including the cymbals is your voice and yours alone. You decide which suits you or not and no one but you can dictate that  :wink:

ZILDJIAN Z Power Ride

We use this in the studio. sobrang heavy cymbal nia and has a dark feel to it.
the strange thing lang, ung bell nia can cut through sa music. im a guitarist din kasi so pag nag rerecord ako, this can blend or cut the music. yo can almost say it
is a hybrid boy.  haha

SABIAN B8 ride (first series)

on my opinion, the first series of the sabian was better. not only because of its
thickness but also the sound. ung mga bago kasi, maxado na clang bright. i own an aax stage hats na first series din. and it is really better than he new one. this ride, i prefer it for jazz kasi mjo may pagka dark accent xa and mei warm feel. the bell is really good to dun sa mga accento nio.

hehe

20' Avedis Zildjian Crash Ride

im using this in a studio. very upbeat ung tunog nya pati ung bell nya matunog din. Pde mo ring gawin crash. Kung mahilig ka sa mga upbeat or loud sounds. eto gamitin mo :-D
Title: Re: RIDE description thread
Post by: markdelacruz on September 11, 2007, 01:47:15 AM
Zidjian ZHT 20" Medium Ride- clear stick definition, but the decay is too long. High pitched, strong bell sound.

Sabian HHX Legacy Ride 20" - dark sounding, defined stick definition "fiery" bell sound if struck with the drumstick shoulder, mid to high pitch bell sound if struck with the drumstick tip. Very crashable. Fiery and dark sounding. Perfect for jazz. Works out well with funk and rock for me. :)

Uniqueness/inconsistency is a value that's only as important as consistency (aka, If you don't value uniqueness/inconsistency, it's not really a very good feature). Hand hammered is more expensive for the mere fact that it involves more manual labor than machine hammering. This is a fact even for everything else that's labor-intensive in the US or most other advanced countries (which is baligtad sa Pilipinas... mas mahal ang minakina dahil mas pulido ang gawa at may special na gamit involved). Other than that:

Okay i have 2 rides

20 K Custom Dark Ride Very versatile. Perfect for Crash and Ride combo!

22 K Constantinople Light Ride Super dry character with right amount of wash kasi 22". Sarap sa Low Volume Setting.

Post by: timpanista on April 11, 2008, 05:30:45 PM
22" Zildjian Avedis Medium Ride. loud bell sound. can be used for jazz or bigband to rock music. although not that good if you want to crash it.

21" Zildjian Avedis Sweet Ride. not as loud as the medium ride for bell but defenitly crashable.

i also used Sabian B8 Pro Heavy Ride before. defenitly not crashable. bell sounds not really good. bow sound is bit ok but i don't like it.

80's 22" planet z ride- im not really sure of when my uncle aqquired such garbage of a cymbal, but he just wouldnt hand it down to me, because of the saying planet z cymbals that survive throughout the years sound unique, this particular cymbal has sweat marks that seem like rust all over it, it gives it a dry mellow sound and far from the brand new planet z cymbals, it sounds more like a K zildjian dark ride, it's bell sounds super dry, crash is trashy....abstract hehe hard to explain since it's been a while since i've seen it, it's still alive...err.. rotting in my uncle's garage, i'd still call it garbage...smells like too
Title: Re: Lets see those RIDEs! and description thread
Post by: ushuaia on April 11, 2008, 08:48:26 PM
problem with machined hammered is consistency of sound. like if you want an old k sound like tony williams. you cant produce 10,000 cymbals with that same sound with one kind of hammering bec every alloy or blanks sounds 8-) diff. wonder why zildjian cymbals with the same model sound diff from each other? thats why even if you buy that bill stewart dry complex or you want the sound of erskines k con. you wont have it. zildjian calls it uniqueness 8-)

22" A Zildjian Medium Ride a.k.a. PIG
Strong bell, solid ping, just enough wash, and a big, powerful crash. Sobrang versatile. Pwedeng pang jazz, pwedeng pang metal.

20" K Zildjian Pre-Aged Dry Light Ride
Actually it's not as dry as advertised. Woody stick sound with a swelling dark wash, topped off with a large, low-pitched bell. Amazing huge dark crash. Great as a ride for jazz and light rock, and as a crash for louder rock and metal.
Title: Re: Lets see those RIDEs! and description thread
Post by: powercharge on April 11, 2008, 11:58:54 PM
20" Zildjian K Jazz Ride

Obviously great for Jazz but fits Rock music very well. It's trashy with lots of warmth. I used it as a crash for rock and it just cuts through the music.

I got it at JB Music in Cubao across Fiesta Carnival way back in 1993. I seldom see anyone who uses this model.  :-D
Title: Re: Lets see those RIDEs! and description thread
Post by: Ralph_Petrucci on April 13, 2008, 09:56:33 PM

okay :D


here are some of the rides i have used in my one year of drumming :D

Name: B8 Ride 20" (pre-2004)
manufacturer: SABIAN Cymbals and Percussion  Canada
Cymabl Type: Ride Cymbal - medium bell
Finish: Traditional Finish
Metal: B8 Bronze


Review:

this ride is a very good choice of a ride cymbal for beginners who want a bright sound with matching good durability. this was the b8 before the new one of sabian. i can say that even that this is b8, the cymbal was pretty sweet and it can satisfy my necessities for a ride cymbal.


Name: K Jazz Ride 20"
Manufacturer: Zildjian Cymbals
Cymbal Type: Ride Cymbal - Big Bell
Finish: traditional
Metal: b20 bronze


Review:


im playing jazz right now, and it's name certainly lives up it's name: JAZZ ride. it is really perfect for that genre but the funny thing is, the guy who owns this is a rock player! so he thought the cymbal was trash. but for jazz players, it is really the best jazz ride i can vouch for.



Name: 101 20" Ride
Manufacturer: PAISTE Cymbals
Cymbal Type: Ride Cymbal - Big Bell
Finish: Brilliant Finish
Metal: Brass

Review:

of all the brass cymbals i have used? the PAISTE 101 ride is certainly the winner of it all. durable, decent sounding and easy on the budget are my descriptions for this cymbal. my friend (cymor) owns this one and it has been a year and 3 months and this cymbal is still in mint condition provided that cymor and i are prog players :D




Name: DH EXO Dry Ride 21"
Manufacturer: STAGG Music
Cymbal Type: Ride - Medium, RAW bell
Finish: Brilliant Bow - RAW BELL
Metal: B20


Review:

Quality yet affordable. perfect description for the STAGG DH EXo. i used this during the MAPEX drumfest at club dredd thanks to JP buduan of forerunner. at first, i was cynical with its sound, but as i got to play it, it was really sweet with my jazz fills and chops. i wanted to get this cymbal, but i opted to get a different one for i wasn't satisfied with the bow of the cymbal (medium low with a long decay) because i was looking for a cutting ride sound with a fierce bell :D
but all in all, this is a good buy :D




and this is the ride cymbal i use as off now :D

Name: Larrie Londin Signature Ride 21"

Manufacturer: SABIAN Cymbals and Percussion Canada
Cymbal Type: Ride Cymbal - Big Bell
Finish: Brilliant Finish
Metal: B20 Bronze


Review:

of all the ride cymbals I have used, this is the cymbal which certainly got my taste. it has a clear stick definition, very crashable, big bell, pronounced volume and a mid-range frequency. all in all combined to have that sweet, smooth tone. personally, i would recommend this cymbal for use on alternative music, mellow and jazz. but sadly, i think i'm the only one in the country who owns this cymbal for the SABIAN company only produced 600 pieces of this cymbal. all-in-all, this ride cymbal has the versatility to fit any genre of music.

K custom medium ride

I don't have pics right now but its a good versatile ride. its not to jazzy or too noisy, it fits rock well.
the bell screams jazz though, clean attack but more suitatble for jazz than rock

itong isa naman Sabian Signature Tony Verderosa ride 19" para siyang duo ride and some sort of a hybrid ride. 7" ata ang bell nito producing a cutting bright ping, may hand hammered part, leaving a dry/raw sound("tah") tapos sa edge niya yung mejo dark clean wash. it changes it's color to blue,green,violet,pink,gold and orange. :wink:

20" B8 ride - my 1st ride. well..its a good entry level cymbal. [scoring 1-10(being the highest haha)]
-ping - 6
-bell - 6.5
-crashability - 5

20" A armand ride - medium thin weight. good stick definition with a bit of wash. ( i use this as a secondary crash)

ping - 8
bell - 8.5
crashability - 10

21" a sweet ride (brilliant) - good stick definition with a little wash. the ping isnt so audible in a rock setting though. great crash. high pitched bell (i use as a main crash)

ping - 8
bell - 8
crashability - 10

22" k dark medium ride - great stick definition with a nice dark wash. full sounding bell. very very crashable. i use this as my main ride and i crash ride alot. you will get a pleasant "wall of sound" if you swing down on it properly. the medium weight (2.9k grams) makes it project perfectly in a rock setting. my favorite cymbal so far

ping - 9
bell - 9
crashability - 10

(http://i713.photobucket.com/albums/ww132/makinao/My%20Cymbals/DSC_0050.jpg)

The "stains", or whatever they are, were there when I bought it brand new. They never came off even with wear and tear. It was the ugliest of four medium rides in the store where I bought it (Salongas Cubao. Hindi pa JB noong 1976), but the sound was irresistible. It also has so many different sounds scattered around it. If I was forced to use only one cymbal in a gig, this would be it.

20" Paiste Alpha Power Ride

Copy ko lang yung infos from VintageDrum.com. Hindi ko pa kasi 'to nasusubukan kasi kakakuha ko pa lang from sir mondi:

Paiste Alpha 20" Power Ride Cymbal

Very bright, full, warm, energetic. Fairly narrow range, clean mix. Heavy, strong feel. Bright strong ping over clean, loud, low, focused wash. Very cutting ride for loud playing. Paiste Alpha cymbals are bright, crisp, energetic, powerful, and cutting - with clarity, warmth, and tonal definition. For players who need affordable cymbals with energy, versatility and very musical features.

Ito yung 90's model ng Paiste Alpha kaya iba yung logo. Phase out model na 'to kaya mahirap na humanap neto sa market.

mga sir quick tanong lang po. alin po may mas magandang crashability?

A Sweet Ride or K Custom Ride?

yung tipong pede mong i-crashride sa song. thanks!  :-)

halos parehas lang sir eh. napadaan na kasi sa akin ang 20 k custom dark ride, 21 a sweet ride (brilliant) and right now i have 21 a sweet ride (traditional finish). for me:

20 k custom dark ride
-since MT weight niya crashable talaga (no doubt about it)
-mejo nahihinaan lang ako sa bell (pero nagccut through naman)
-nakulangan din ako sa stick definition
-nahirapan ako i-control when crash-riding dahil magaan para sa akin ang 20" na MT weighted ride
-warm washy sound

21 a sweet ride (brilliant finish)
-M weight ride siya (pero mas controllable ang traditional finish para sa akin)
-super crashable (kaya pinakawalan ko dahil naiingayan na ako. masyadong malakas para sa type of music i'm playing before)
-high pitched bell and good stick definition
-bright crashy sound

21 a sweet ride (traditional finish)
-M weight din siya but in traditional finish [mas warmer ang tunong nito para sa akin compared to the brilliant finish or let's say mas bright nalang ang brilliant finish since nasa same A series line sila (which is also known to be bright sounding.)]
-controlled wash para sa akin compared to the brilliant one
-mas matagal mag-open up ito (again, compared to the brilliant finish)
-mid-range bell and stick definition
-compared sa two aforementioned rides, nasa gitna ito. saktong-sakto talaga para sa akin.

kung pwede na may maidadagdag pa sa pinagpipilian mo, ito suggestion ko. ang pinaka sakto sa lahat.

-22 A Medium Ride :mrgreen: (para sa mas saktong tunog. meaning mas controlled ang wash nito sa sweet ride)
-21 K Crash-Ride (brilliant, zak starkey model) halos katunog ng sweet ride brilliant finish :wink:

(hindi ako nagmamarunong ah. base lang yan sa sarili kong opinion since nasubukan ko na yang mga ride cymbals na yan except for the 21 k crash ride. hehe. :-D)

mga sir quick tanong lang po. alin po may mas magandang crashability?

A Sweet Ride or K Custom Ride?

yung tipong pede mong i-crashride sa song. thanks!  :-)

ay sorry bro! inaantok na talaga ako. haha. k custom ride pala ang tinatanong mo hindi k custom dark ride. hehe.
pero kung ako tatanungin mo, magbabase nalang ako sa weight ng cymbal. for me, MT and M weighted rides are very good crashable rides. as for the k custom ride... hmmmm... mahirap ata bro, MH kasi eh... pero it's still personal preference. kung k custom ride, wala kang itatapon sa bell at stick definition. super rich saiya dun sa characteristics na yun! :wink:

again, sorry. hindi ko nabasa mabuti yung post mo... haha. papungas-pungas nako habang nagbabasa at nag-ttype. hehe. peace! :

^^^^ NICE! PATOK! Swak na swak! maraming maraming salamat sir! just what i was looking for.

ah i see, so looks like mas versatile ang sweet ride. (at mas mura pa!) matagal na kasi talaga akong naghahanap ng versatile na ride. yung pede mong i crashride din sa mga tipong chorus ng song without overpowering the amps.

thanks rin for the suggestions! naku po, mukhang matatagalan pa ako sa pag-iisip a. di bale! matagal pa naman ata bago ako maka-ipon ng perang pambili. pero malapit narin naman bday ko atsaka pasko, baka swertehin.  :-D

sa ngayon, i'm leaning on the sweet ride(traditional though) because of this vid, plus mas mura pa siya sa pagkakaalam ko sa K Custom Ride.  :-)

Zildjian 21" A Sweet Ride

When I first tried it I was a bit disappointed knowing that it sounded too washy when you ride it. Overtones were wild and overpowering. You have to tame it a bit. The bell does not project much volume and power either. But when I crash it---BOOOM! Kudeta, sir!

It opens up just a tad slower than my AC Med Crash but nonetheless it delivered the full bodied crash I had been looking for.

But sweet as it comes, here is the best part.

We used it in a recording very recently and only then did I find its beauty. The bell, the ping, the crash - blends right in and needs no further control. When crashed, the Sweet Ride showed its true spectrum of sounds and overtones. Simply put, the Sweet Ride is the most versatile ride by Zildjian.

I shall look no further for a better ride that fits our music than this one.

You're gassing for a K Custom Medium Ride? I got one that's up for sale bro. its not more than two months old. December lang nabili and I'm selling it for only 10k. Beat that! Kunin mo na.  :-D message me bro we might come to an agreement. Hehe.  :-D by the way it's 20 inches and it's fairly crashable. It's got a nice wash and stick definition. Overall I think it's a great ride. Very versatile too! Hehe. If not for my sabian tri-top ride i would definitely keep this.  :lol:

To answer your inquiry about the 22" version of the K Cust Med if its crashable, I'd say yes. May crash abilities din siguro. Although di pa ako nakatry. Hehe.

mga sir!

inquire lang po ako about 20' Sabian AAX Stage Ride. okay ba itong ride na ito when it comes to versatility? I'm looking kasi for that cymbal na magandang i-CrashRide, tapos maganda rin i-Ride sa songs. Ayoko yung tipong pag ni-CrashRide ko eh nasasapawan na lahat amps ng kaband ko.

Any thoughts on this one? Yung hinahanap ko talaga is 21' Zildjian A Sweet Ride dahil ang ganda talaga nung crashability nitong cymbal na to. To no avail though, wala pakong mahanap na offers sa classifieds, pero may nag-offer nitong Stage Ride. Pakishare nalang po mga insights niyo sa cymbal na to. Thanks!  :lol:

Avedis Sweet Rides work well with A Custom Crashes and Medium Crashes, pero sir baka malunod o maging accent lang ang AC Fast Crash sa ikli ng decay if you plan to crash-ride the A Sweet Ride. This mother can get very loud. (Masarap kasi paluin kaya lumalakas)

Also, wala pa yatang A Custom na Sweet Ride.  :wink:

HAHA. :lol: hindi naman ako ganon. nice to know, kinabahan ako kasi sa Thin naka classify yung Ride na yun sa Zildjian.com eh. thanks sir!





P.S: plug ko nalang, bilhin niyo na yung K Custom MedRide ko para mabili ko yung K Ride. naka RUSH na siya :wink:

Thin ang K Ride? pagkaalala ko, nasa med thin to med range siya. it's heavier than a K Custom Dark or a Pre-Aged K.

Yun yung nakalagay sa Zildjian.com eh, nabigla nga rin ako na T yung nakalagay, akala ko talaga M or MT. :? Kaya ako kinabahan sa durability niya if ever magkakaroon ako.


edit: WHOA MY BAD. Nakaclassify pala siya as Medium. :lol: yung T na nakita ko pala is yung T for Traditional finish. Apologies. :-)

Mga sir!

I just want to inquire about the Zildjian 22" K Dark Medium Ride's durability. I've been spending some ample amount of time reading lots and lots of reviews about this cymbal, and the thing is, mabilis daw ito magcrack? :| Palagi ko nalang nakikita na within ilang months daw nakacrack nila. Nung una sabi ko siguro mali lang siguro technique nila sa pagpalo, pero magugulat ka talaga sa dami ng mga users na nakakacrack nitong Ride na to. Natakot tuloy ako, I'm planning pa naman to get this in the far future.

I also remember sir Popsicle cracking his? binenta niya iyon sa classifieds dati, pero pinaayos at pinaretract narin, +1 case yun. Ano po maisasabi ninyo?

durability?ask mo si alvin_11,sa kanya galing yung cymbals,9months to sa kanya..hehehe.anyway,di ko pa talaga to nagagamit sa band setting,di pa ako nakakatugtog lately,sa bahay lang ako.for me,yung durability ng cymbals ay sa pagpalo talaga.this cymbal is on the lighter weight in the medium series sabi sa zildjian.com. sometimes we get fooled by its size and weight kaya the people tend to overplay it.kung di ka naman heavy hitter,ok naman yata itong cymbals.ganito rin ride ni sandythedrummer,may he can provide some feedback about this ride.ask din natin si popsicle kung anong nangyari sa cymbal niya..


paging sandy and popsicle! 8-)

what can you say about the 22 K Dark Med Ride's durability and why are there people saying that it is easy to break?
Title: Re: Lets see those RIDEs!
Post by: glennaui on May 07, 2010, 12:49:42 PM
parang lahat tau, iisa ang gustong ride ah...

Malinaw i-crash  at  malinaw  i-ride...


Mine is K custom medium 20", para sakin it has good stick definition, not annoying overtones and good for crashing. Also I have a paiste signature reflector 19" crash, used as my crash-ride... Bigay saking ng uncle ko... Used but performs in its finest...

ako gusto ko raw bell dry ride or power bell ride ng sabian, kaya lang wala ako pambili hehehe. i like rides that have solid bells tska less washy. i try to avoid mediums but ganun ang ride ko. hopefully i can buy the AA raw bell ride before xmas. hay ang tagal... :|

AA raw bell dry ride!!!!!, heard the HH, HHX, AAx raw bell dry rides. the AA is the sweetest...In my opinion  :-)
