'''Review''': "Sabian's 21" Hand Hammered Vintage Ride is designed "to recreate the full-wash sound of rides made in the '50s through the '70s." But my testing revealed it to have more definition than you might expect from that description. It still maintains the darker sound of the Hand Hammered series, with just a hint of the "trash" sound. The bell is a little bigger than normal and is appropriately clangy. <br> | '''Review''': "Sabian's 21" Hand Hammered Vintage Ride is designed "to recreate the full-wash sound of rides made in the '50s through the '70s."

We received both "regular" and Brilliant versions of the 21" Vintage Ride. The wash sound was significantly more pronounced on the Brilliant model—to the point that articulation suffered on fast bebop-style sticking patterns.

Review: "Sabian's 21" Hand Hammered Vintage Ride is designed "to recreate the full-wash sound of rides made in the '50s through the '70s." But my testing revealed it to have more definition than you might expect from that description. It still maintains the darker sound of the Hand Hammered series, with just a hint of the "trash" sound. The bell is a little bigger than normal and is appropriately clangy.
We received both "regular" and Brilliant versions of the 21" Vintage Ride. The wash sound was significantly more pronounced on the Brilliant model—to the point that articulation suffered on fast bebop-style sticking patterns.
