General
Made for the budget-conscious rock or metal drummer, the 20 inch Meinl Classics Custom Dark Heavy ride has been forged from B10 bronze alloy and hammered into shape via high-accuracy computer-steered machining. This ultra-modern technique results in a ride with a loud, sharp and explosive sound and an oversized bell - more than enough to smash through a wall of guitars.
The Meinl Classics Custom Dark Heavy Ride
This potent cymbal has been finished with a dark coating that's then been shaved back at specific intervals across the bow to provide precision dampening in all the right places, while retaining just enough clarity and lush and harmonic musicality in the overtones to balance everything out. The pattern that this treatment leaves behind also gives it a great look. In short, this is a solid metal ride, or a second ride for full-on dual-ride rhythms.
