Description

Less delicate than other HH Hammertone rides, this 21″ model offers enhanced projection and articulation, especially when played with a medium to heavy stick. The tapered edge design balances warm spread with a controlled stick sound, allowing it to function confidently as both a primary ride and crash voice in ensemble settings.

Sound & Feel:
  • Warm, dark spread with musical complexity
  • Controlled, articulate stick response
  • Increased volume suited to larger ensembles
  • Crashable design with smooth bloom
  • Medium-loose feel for expressive playing
Built to Perform:
  • B20 bronze construction for rich tonal depth
  • Traditional HH hand-hammered craftsmanship
  • Tapered edge enhances balance between wash and stick
  • Designed for durability in demanding performance settings
  • Artist-inspired design tailored for versatility
Ideal For:
  • Big band and jazz ensemble performance
  • Players seeking a crashable ride cymbal
  • Larger ensembles requiring projection and warmth
  • Drummers favouring a darker, traditional ride voice
  • Setups where one cymbal must cover ride and crash roles
