is it quiet? I'm looking for a good quiet dry-ish ride. Should I go for a flat ride? I really love love love the sounds of flats, nut i love dry bells.

[bostondrum]

Yes, it's kind of quiet. What do you think of the Zildjian K Custom Special Dry? That might work for what you're describing. Thanks for watching!

I'm really interested in buying one of these babies. But I don't know if to get a 20" or 22". I want to use it for slow and obscure songs. Kind of like radiohead stuff. I have a few rides but they are all too bright but this one seals the deal.  What do you suggest?

[bostondrum]

I like the 22" myself, but the 20" might sit better in that kind of music.  How loud is it? What are the other instruments?

[hcastillo]

What do you like about the 22"? I would be battling with a Mesa Boogie amp and an Egnater. I want to apply it to a variety of songs that we want to make really really dark, think Pink Floyd meets Marlyn Manson. I heard the 20" here and at a music store and I liked it, but I have four 20" rides, one 21" and two 22". So I want to have a 22" and have it "open" up a little more. Sorry for the letter!!!

[bostondrum]

It seems to me that the 22" has a little more "spread" while the 20" is more focused. Of course, if you want to go huge, we could special order you a 24"!

2455 gold, thats way to much to farm, screw this

if you want a REALLY nice flat ride, i'd go with Dream Cymbals. theyre fairly new, but they know what theyre doing.

@daveyj10

Please do post that so I can hear it - I have some rivets and a drill!

[daveyj10]

The AA Raw Ride (22") sounds AMAZING with rivets!! I'll see if i can post up a video of how it sounds...

[Wolfparade51]

@bostondrum I actually liked the sound of the Dream cymbals that you hosted. But, I think I set my heart on the Mienl Jazz series :)

hay i just pick one if these baby's up for 200 and this video really helped my make my decision thanks!

[Wolfparade51]

I got a Hand Hammered 20inch. It's good. But Its a little... Not dry? It sounds beautiful though. I got it because I needed a loud-ish ride for my live jazz groups. I'm glad though.

this was a 5 month old comment, which ride did you end up going with?
