Sabian 21" AA rock ride review
so heres the review of the sabian AA rock ride (21 inch)
stick defintion: 9.8
greatt defintion, the only ride ive hearrd with better was the K custom high definttion ride
wash:8.5
as its a rock ride, you dont expect alot of wash, yet this actually ahs a very jazzy wash. whats starnge (and awesome!) is that althpugh the ride is bright it has a dark wash.
ping:9.9
imho perfect pimng. its broght enough to cut, yet the tiny bit of wash helps it blend.
bell: 9.3
very nice bell, could cut a little more, but it cuts pretty well. great for rock and latin
crashability: 8.3
very long sustain, not a great ride for crashing, but you can crash it. you get a huge booming sound so if you play metal this may be good for yyou.
verstilty: 10.
i dont see a genre you couldnt play with theis ride. great ping,good wash, decent crashability, and pretty good bell. great all around ride
overall: 9.89
in my mind this is one of the great rides. its up there with the kls and HH-HHX's i love the size of 21 inchs because you get the tightness of a 20 witht he wash of a 22. overally this is a great ride for jazz rock latin etc... and for me its the perfect ride. i play rock and jazz wittha little bit of country and latin and i can use it for any style well. defintly should at least try it out in a store if not buy one, guys. its a great cymbal.
