Turkish Cymbals Jazz Ride Light – Light Musicality
The Jazz series by Turkish Cymbals is the answer to a timeless question: how does a cymbal sound that is completely in service of the music? Deeply hammered, with a characteristic surface full of pronounced hammer strikes and a traditional, non-brilliant finish, this series delivers a warm, dark and multi-layered sound that adapts like a chameleon to playing intensity and technique. A delicate brush stroke sounds different from a firm stick strike – and that is precisely what makes these cymbals so musical.
Sound Character: Light, Open and Expressive
The Jazz Ride Light in 21" is the lighter version of the Jazz Ride – and thereby a cymbal with its own unmistakable character. The Thin construction provides a faster, more open response: the wash unfolds more freely than the Medium-Thin model, the stick sound is brighter and more direct. For drummers who prefer a more open, airier ride sound, the Jazz Ride Light is the right choice. The deep hammer strikes of the Jazz series are audible here too – they give the light sonic character organic depth and warmth absent in thinner, less heavily hammered cymbals. The bell is clear and bright with a direct bell tone.
Applications: Traditional Jazz, Jazz-Fusion, Soul, R'n'B and Funk
The Jazz Ride Light appeals to drummers seeking a light, open ride sound with warm character. In Traditional Jazz the open, airy sonic character is ideal for drummers who also want to use their ride as a crash-ride. In Jazz-Fusion the Thin construction enables fast, expressive ride patterns. In Soul and R'n'B the open wash creates a warm, flowing sonic backdrop. In Funk the bright bell delivers precise bell accents with fast response.
Craftsmanship from Istanbul – At the Best Price
Every Jazz cymbal is crafted in the workshops of Turkish Cymbals in Istanbul following a tradition that reaches back centuries. The B20 bronze alloy – 80% copper, 20% tin – is hand-cast, heated and deeply and intensively hand-hammered by experienced master craftsmen. The pronounced hammer strikes are no accident – they are the artisan heart of this series and produce the characteristic warm, complex tone. We at Cymballand are proud, as the official partner of Turkish Cymbals, to bring this craftsmanship directly to you – without intermediaries, at the best price.
