Dream Cymbals Contact Heavy Ride Cymbals
The heavy Contact was built for rock: more weight, a bigger bell, and a stick sound bold enough to be heard at volume. The wash stays medium-bright and stays under the stick rather than covering it. Played with finesse it works as a jazz ride too, which is not true of most heavy rides.
Each one is cast from Dream's B20 bronze, then hammered and lathed by hand rather than pressed, which is why two cymbals of the same size are never quite identical. Diameters offered here run 20 in and 22 in, each ordered as its own part number.
