    Default Zildjian 21" A Custom Medium Ride ?????

    Are the A customs a pretty good cymbal ? I may have a shot at getting one brand new for 180 bucks.

    yeah that sounds good, i heard they have been compared to aax, so i think your good on that one. i heard the ride was a little too bright, but whatever fits your taste

    I have AAX dark crash rides so this should work nice. If I dont like it I'll just sell it like I did the previous ride. I mean 180 bucks and it's new in wrapper I think that is hard to beat.

    For $180 bucks, go for it. I don't own it, but played it. I have an A Zildjian medium ride. Sounds simiular. Good all around ride for most situations.

    If your "Gut" feeling is good, Dawg, then go for it. I still have my Avedjis Zildjian 20" medium ride for the 1965. However, I don't use it anymore as I now have cymbals that are darker and a bit more articulate. I've tested the new A's and find them to be brighter which is not a bad thing. If I didn't have so much $$$ wrapped up in what I have, I might consider getting one of them.

    Well I got the cymbal today. Nice ride. A little bright but not as bright as I expected. Seems to go well with my kit. A quicker wash than the ping I had and that was what I was looking for. Thanks for all the advice folks.

    cool man, great deal. i dont know why, but i just dont see alot of a custom rides around. i see plenty of hats and crashes but usually paired with avedis or K rides.

    The guy I bought from said his son got it as a Christmas gift. He put it next to his K custom ride and preferred the K.
