Drawing from the foundation of other Big Apple rides, this flat ride combines many elements for a unique cymbal. Starting off, the thin weight allows this cymbal to be very expressive regardless of the dynamic level. Next, the unlathed surface and lack of a bell produce razor sharp definition wrapped in an earthy, raw vibe. Finally, there is a slight bow in the shape which adds a roar and hint of sizzle in the wash and creates a low, breathy response when crashed.

Effortless touch and clean sound. This is Meinl Pure Alloy. A timeless voice formed with fully lathed surfaces allows them to be expressive in virtually any style. Their refined nature has two sides: polished definition met by a velvety wash that encompasses a full tonal spectrum. Shimmering, smooth sounds bounce right along with your stick to create a reactive touch that extends through all dynamic levels. These cymbals cut with agility. Blanketing their superb stick definition is a sustain that plays out with just the right amount of strength and balanced wash.

As a crash, it opens easily with a warm voice and medium sustain allowing it to be used in any musical application.

This is a cymbal that any working drummer would benefit from having in their cymbal bag.

Redesigned by Terri Lyne Carrington for 2008, the 22" K Custom High Definition Ride is thinner than the original model for greater "crashability" and feel while riding. It features the same spiral lathing on top but the bottom has been left unlathed to help retain the dryness and stick definition. Perfect for use in both electric and acoustic settings, this Ride has a great amount of body and tone while still sounding "dry" and controlled.
