Zildjian K Light 22" Ride Cymbal - Traditional Finish

You play jazz? Have we got the perfect ride cymbal for you. Rock? Still a perfect choice. Pop and country? Same ride! 

The versatility of the Zildjian K Light 22" Ride Cymbal is seriously impressive and we’ll wager that there are very few musical situations in which it wouldn't shine. This K Series Light ride is on the darker side of the spectrum and holds a shorter sustain than the K or K Heavy rides. As such, this is a perfect choice for drummers who want an all-purpose ride, while satisfying their own personal preference for darker, smokier tones.

This thin, well-balanced ride cymbal has a sweet, focused stick and a round full-bodied wash that works over a multitude of musical styles - even hardcore and metal. Its traditional finish and computer-controlled random hammering pattern produce the perfect all-purpose sound brimming with dark, sultry charisma. 

Crafted from B20 Bronze alloy, this great ride cymbal is individually poured, cast and cooled before being exposed to an expertly-conceived sequence of heating, rolling, shaping, hammering, and lathing entirely unique to this particular cymbal range. These processes imbue the cymbal with the signature K Custom sound - dark and alluring, with great projection, clarity, and durability
