If you know, you know. The Armands were too short lived and the whole line has been my secret weapon, and that of a number of studio guys I know, for years. Tight / Smooth Lathing on top, Traditonal A. Lathe on the bottom. Designed to sound like 60s As, and just a little warmer and drier than the regular A line. Super musical. Super versatile.

This one is no exception, but has always just sat a little higher in pitch than makes sense with my other crashes/rides. I kinda find it has a cool high/low thing about its sound, but that's all subjective. I honestly don't remember any flea-bites, but it's been a minute since I took these photos (cymbal is safe in storage), and given all the edge shots, there must be one or two, but I couldn't see them, upon posting. Weird discoloration under the center hole, but zero effect on the sound, semi-obviously.

Prior owner took the logos off the top, but if you squint in, you can see all the details.

It's a great cymbal, and I hope you love it.

Local NYC Pickup available and always preferred, but I will ship to the lower 48, happily, packed as lovingly as I can manage. :)
