Yes, it's THE Dark Ride (of Dark Ride fame.) Jack DeJohnette all day!!
Check out the pictures! There are NO nicks, cracks, dents, or dings on this 22" Rara Avis. It's in GREAT Condition with a nice patina that has formed.
Overall pretty damn clean!!
I believe that Jack DeJohnette was the inspiration behind the Dark Ride and Sound Creation Series. This specific Beauty has a killer stick attack! Not surprisingly, this 22" Sound Creation Dark Ride sounds like NO MODERN PAISTE on the market today. In recent years, the Sound Creations have become fiercely sought after cymbals because they do no doubt capture what many people believe to be, Paiste at their best in terms cymbalmaking. That is not to say that I do not enjoy newer Paistes, I do, however you simply CANNOT get this sound from Paiste today.
This 22" Ride really sounds different from any newer Paiste. It just does. And this specific one has glorious handiwork! Look at the closeups.
As you can see, this Rare 22" Sound Creation Dark Ride is HEAVILY Hammered. The impressions are deep and do not resemble modern Paistes. The bell is medium in size (not huge) and surprisingly solid. It CUTS. What I really dig about this specific 22" SC Dark Ride, is that it has a wonderful stick definition. The attack is prominent...and fairly DRY for a Paiste. This particular Sound Creation has a much better attack than most of the others I've heard. This one is more focused with the definition staying on top. The stick/wash ratio is extremely well balanced (I think it sounds best with a medium or smaller beaded stick.) The pitch is medium low for a 22" and the wash is Dark, slightly mellow and fairly complex-especially for a Paiste. It's different than a Paiste Traditional though. It's more dry and focused. Yet still complex. It almost has a slightly Turkish vibe to it. Perhaps that the B20 Alloy talking. SOUNDFILE COMING AS SOON AS ONE IS RECORDED!!! The weight on this 22" Dark Ride is 3350 grams, making it a slightly thinner one. (Others I've owned were in the 3500 range) And this 22" would be a wonderful candidate for rivets if you're looking for a huge and dark sizzle ride. This Rare B20 Paiste 602 22" DARK Ride is fantastic for just about anything. It's a perennial favorite among jazz, blues, and ballad players, and it's terrific definition, semi-dry, dark tone, and Paiste B20 shimmer make it a welcomed edition to any soul, R&B, funk, fusion, folk, country, acoustic, or rock/pop gig. Use it anytime you need a great dark, semi-dry Paiste tone WITH definition...that you can't get from the modern catalogue. AND if you're a collector, well hell, this is the HOLY GRAIL Paiste!
AND this one is in Wonderful Condition. So do yourself a favor and grab this Rare and collectible LOW Profile B20 Alloy 3350 gram Vintage Paiste 22" FAMOUS SOUND CREATION DARK RIDE. Use it on your next gig or store it in the closet and watch it appreciate...because it sure as hell will. Don't miss this one.
