These are increasingly hard to find!

The Special Dry series is Zildjian's take on the dry, trashy, buried-cymbal sound, with a raw unlathed finish and very little overtone. At 23", this ride has a deep, low pitch with clear stick articulation and a short, controlled wash that never builds up. Lean into it and it opens into a dark, trashy crash.

It's a favorite for jazz, indie, and studio players who want a ride that sits under the mix instead of washing over it, and it works just as well as a dark, dry crash-ride in a rock setup.

Ships double-boxed and carefully padded. Happy to send more photos or a sound clip.
