'''Review:''' "Especially when played with wood-tipped sticks, the 20" Dimension Dry Ride's fundamental pitch is fairly low. As a result, it's crisp and articulate without being "pingy." But it isn't so dry as to be excessively "clicky" either. Faint undertones fatten things out a smidge, but their ceiling remains well below the stick sound. The bell works for subtle tonal variation, but riding on it steadily doesn't generate the kind of clang you're likely to need for rock or louder settings. The Dry ride's unique finish—less reflective and more coppery in color than other Dimensions—perfectly suits its name and sound."<br> | '''Review:''' "Especially when played with wood-tipped sticks, the 20" Dimension Dry Ride's fundamental pitch is fairly low.
