The bell produced a nice, clean sound with a touch of hiss from the rivets  that  became  especially  pronounced  when  I  struck  with  the  shoulder  of  the  stick. Playing  in  the  middle  of  the  cymbal  produced  good  definition,  with  a  nice  spread  that built a magically dark, hissing cushion of sound. Responding to the cymbal’s vibrations, the rivets truly brought the sound of this cymbal to a new place.<br>

Moving  out  to  the  very  edge  of  the  cymbal  created  more  wash.  I especially liked using this area for accents, where a strong strike generated  a  dark,  roaring  sound,  with  a  mean  hiss.  On  the  quieter side,  the  cymbal  responded  quite  nicely  to  being  played  with brushes.<br>

About  a  third  apart  in  pitch,  the  20"  and  22"  performed equally  well.  Choosing  between  them  would  probably depend  on  the  size  of  your  main  ride.  Whether  placed  on the left of the kit, by your primary ride on the right, or elsewhere, the Left Side Ride has a lot to offer."<br>

Review: "Peter Erskine helped develop the Left Side Ride, which he conceived as the jazz drummer’s second ride, complementing the primary ride and crash cymbals. The model is available in 20" and 22" sizes. Its attractively rustic, unfinished, dark and blotchy appearance invites you to hit it on first sight. Medium-sized hammer marks spattered across the surface surround a plain bell, while a cluster of three rivets sits roughly 13⁄4" in from the edge.
This cymbal was downright addictive, as I kept finding new ways to incorporate it into my playing. The bell produced a nice, clean sound with a touch of hiss from the rivets that became especially pronounced when I struck with the shoulder of the stick. Playing in the middle of the cymbal produced good definition, with a nice spread that built a magically dark, hissing cushion of sound. Responding to the cymbal’s vibrations, the rivets truly brought the sound of this cymbal to a new place.
Moving out to the very edge of the cymbal created more wash. I especially liked using this area for accents, where a strong strike generated a dark, roaring sound, with a mean hiss. On the quieter side, the cymbal responded quite nicely to being played with brushes.
About a third apart in pitch, the 20" and 22" performed equally well. Choosing between them would probably depend on the size of your main ride. Whether placed on the left of the kit, by your primary ride on the right, or elsewhere, the Left Side Ride has a lot to offer."
