Review & Description

A standard part of most drum kits, the Tiger 20 Ride Cymbal is designed to maintain a steady rhythmic pattern, rather than provide accents as with, for exampe a crash or splash cymbal. Drummers normally place the main ride cymbal on their extreme right above the floor tom, and it is primarily played with the right hand. When struck, this great student cymbal makes a sustained, shimmering sound, rather than the decaying sound of a crash cymbal. Crafted from fine brass, the Tiger 20 Ride Cymbal can vary in its final sound by variation on what kind of stick is used; In rock and metal, wood and nylon-tipped drum sticks are common; Wood creates a smoother, quieter sound, whereas nylon tips create more of a ping, and a sharper bell tone. Brushes, used commonly in variations of jazz, make the ride cymbal more felt than heard, as it creates a low vibration to keep a steady beat, but a low volume. Read more
