This is one of the best rides I've heard. My favorite of all the raw bell dry rides, for it's darkness without being too dark. If you want the ride that is going to blend in nicely with your kit rather than the ride that sticks out like a sore thumb, then get this ride. Lots of high profile artists from different styles of music are using it, so that should say something about it's versatility. Don't hesitate.

I was very excited about this ride. I was looking for something dark and defined and everyone told me I would love this. After playing it I just felt like it was bland. IT was almost too dry. You barely could hear it over a band and it never opened up. It was very "shy" and didn't have that umphh I was looking for. I went with the HHX Dry Ride and couldn't be happier.

This ride has a throw back groove thats light on the tonal wash. Great stick definition for many types of music. The bell is sharp and creates a sound that wont quite, it's like a another instrument beside the cymbal.
