Bosphorus 20 Versa Ride |
Available sizes: 20" |
Designed by award winning drummer Ignacio Berroa, this series adds a new
flavor to our palate of sounds. Ignacio numerous contributions to the
American Music Scene have earned him a place along a very selective group of
artists known to have set new musical trends in the 20th Century. Jazz
legend Dizzy Gillepsie best defined Ignacio as "...the only Latin drummer in
the world, in the history of American Music that knows both worlds; his
native Afro-Cuban as well as Jazz...". As the name of his line of Versa
Cymbals implies, this series is designed to be as versatile as "Iggy"
himself. |

20" Ride: |
A ride cymbal that is as versatile as it is beautiful. The cymbal itself is
a combination of an unlathed playing area and a lathed and polished outer
edge. Unlike the Antique Series the lathing areas are separate and distinct.
The bell is in the unlathed portion of the cymbal and provides a nice dry
and definitive ping that is warm but not overpowering. The ride boasts clear
ping with controlled wash. Mr. Berroa designed this cymbal to be played in a
myriad of playing situations that include Rock, Jazz, Afro-Cuban, and World
and the cymbal delivers BIG in all areas. A fantastic all-purpose ride. |
