Review: "Starting with the ride. The combination of the size and finishing offers a relatively dark attack with a dryness that means your sticking comes across clearly, but with a lack of wash building up to clutter things. Likewise, the small bell still cuts with plenty of bite, but there’s a darkness to it that means it won’t remove your audience’s ears.
While it is designed to decay quickly, it’s not without its ability to crash too - albeit fairly dry, but we think that funk, jazz, blues and fusion players will love the dynamic nature of the Uptown Ride."
