Review: "The Deep Full rides were a pleasure to play. With pitches that dropped lower from the 20" to the 22", they were even-tempered, rich with tone, and expressive in a subtle, understated way. I could articulate delicate passages with sticks, brushes, or my fingers. I felt like I was painting the sonic landscape with a full range of harmonics. The Sonic Texture was applied underneath, with lathing and hammering on top.

These models really felt like big band rides in the way they blended into the music. I tried combining them with the 15" Medium Heavy Crunch hats to see how they would interact. It was a match made in heaven."
