Paiste Masters Dry Ride 20 in.

Masters started out as an assemblage of twelve rides - exquisite and laboriously hand-manufactured cymbals made of CuSn20 bronze to achieve superior sound ideals in various musical genres. In 2014, three crashes and two hats join the series to expand the unique Masters sound atmosphere to additional cymbal types. Masters integrate the experience of the decades long art of cymbal making with the inspirations of international top drummers.

The 20", 21" and 22" Dry Rides are easily controlled cymbals with short harmonic decay that always stays articulated even with delicate, fast figures. The rapidly responsive stick sound is supported by a dry, dark, warm wash. The matted shimmer of the darkish surface suitably expresses the charismatic sound of these cymbals with a corresponding look.

They have a dark, dry, deep sound with a Medium wide range and complex mix. They have a fairly soft feel and are controllable. The pronounced, warm ping over dry, deep wash is extremely versatile. They're crisp ride cymbals for articulated playing in a variety of musical situations.
