12" FX Ride from Paiste and Daru Jones
If you're leery of calling a 12" cymbal a "ride," you're not alone. But take a turn on Daru Jones's 12" PST X DJs 45 Ride, and you might think differently. This cymbal has that sampled-and-sped-up sound to bring your favorite breakbeats to the stage. A defined ping and chunky bell tones are yours at a controlled volume for intimate settings. Not only does the DJs 45 Ride sound fire, but it also looks the part, too — its vinyl 45 motif with black finish, record-groove lathing, and "Side A" stamp is bound to attract the right kind of attention when you play out. Like the rest of the series, the Paiste PST X DJs 45 Ride measures just 12" in diameter, which makes it perfect for grab-and-go gigs.

Micro-sized cymbals from the mind of Daru Jones
Daru Jones's showmanship and expressive phrasing have earned him spots performing alongside Jack White and Talib Kweli. From the same musical mind comes the Paiste PST X DJs 45 series. These FX cymbals proudly bear Daru's silhouette logo and expressive soul. Their 12" size makes every cymbal in the line — hats, crash, and ride — perfect for gigging, mixing, and stacking.
