For some of us, the thought of wash and overtone accompanying a ping just can't be tolerated, and for those people, the Sabian 20" HH Encore Flat Ride Cymbal may be your new best friend. Crafted with a flattened bow profile and nearly non-existent bell, the Flat Ride responds with woody, ultra-dry articulation that complements lower volume playing environments. A natural fit for jazz, this should be a considered avenue for anyone who places sticking above all else in a ride.
