Thank you so much for providing the sound file!For me this rates as a very strong "Meh". It sounds cool and I know it's very rare, but just because it's rare doesn't mean it sounds great. I've heard many, many ride cymbals that I like way better than this one.Just my 2.7 cents (inflation adjusted).V
Interesting how perceptions vary. Perhaps you're not a small acoustic ensemble jazz player. I thought it was one of the best cymbals I've heard in a very very long time.
