BENNY GREB SIGNATURE: a pre-aged heavy ride designed with Benny Greb and inspired by legendary modified cymbal sounds of the ‘70s and ‘80s where players typically used repurposed (and often repaired) symphonic cymbals as their ride
HAND HAMMERED IN TURKEY: shaped by artisans to refine thickness, shape, tone, and feel—each Byzance cymbal is truly one of a kind
B20 BRONZE ALLOY: composed of 80% copper and 20% tin, this alloy produces a rich, complex sound with a wide dynamic range—perfect for nuanced playing
SOUND NOTCH: by disrupting the outer ring tension—especially on a ride cymbal—you get fewer overtones, a more focused sound, and less unwanted sustain
SANDBLASTING: this signature Meinl technique, well known from the Sand Series, gives the cymbal its controlled, pre-aged sound
COMPACT: just like those old repurposed symphonic cymbals, this is a small but heavy ride; the size and weight deliver hi-fi studio quality, impeccable articulation, and a sweet yet bold sound
SIZE & WEIGHT: 18", heavy weight
وصف
The Benny Greb Signature 18" Quick Sand Ride channels the iconic jazz and funk sounds of the '70s and '80s. This small, heavy ride is inspired by repurposed—and often repaired—symphonic cymbals players typically used as rides during that era. A sound notch and sandblasted surface create a pre-aged, modified character with clarity, control, and complex tone. Hand hammered in Turkey from cast B20 bronze. Heavy weight.
