Sabian 22" Artisan Light Ride

The 22" Artisan Light Ride delivers a responsive feel with a glassy, well-defined stick click that cuts through a dark, aggressive undertone. This cymbal balances a piercing bell with surprising crash-ability, making it equally at home as a primary ride or in hybrid setups where versatility matters. The thin weight category allows for faster response and easier manipulation without sacrificing projection or presence.

Tone & Character

Built with B20 bronze and shaped through high-density hand hammering, this cymbal produces a sizzling, dark-edged tone that bubbles beneath a crisp attack. The raw bell design generates a piercing accent that cuts distinctly, while the overall sonic palette works across Rock, Hip-Hop, R&B, and Jazz applications without tonal limitation.

Construction & Durability

Hand-hammered construction ensures consistent quality and acoustic complexity throughout the playing surface. SABIAN backs this instrument with a Two-Year Warranty Program, reflecting confidence in both materials and craftsmanship.
