The Zildjian 21" K Custom Special Dry Ride is fashioned with an ultra-dry raw finish for the utmost in articulation and almost nil in overtones along with a dry, complex character imparted by the wide, vintage lathing and smaller bell. Designed to emulate the cymbals jazz drummers would bury to alter the chemical makeup and make the overall tone drier, these rides are a solid option for any musician looking to eradicate wash and overtone from the sound.
