Inspired by Danny Carey

Made from a proprietary signature bronze alloy, the 22" Paiste Signature Dry Heavy Ride cymbal delivers a highly musical sound that excels at high-volume performance. Designed for Tool's Danny Carey, the 22" Signature Dry Heavy Ride is designed to give you a pronounced attack and brightness with a warm and complex wash. The bell delivers a cutting tone that is well separated. Danny Carey describes the cymbal as "Beautiful and harmonic." Add this complex sounding power to your kit with the Paiste 22" Signature Dry Heavy Ride from Sweetwater.

Paiste - a tradition of innovation

Headquartered in Switzerland, Paiste meets the creative needs of drummers and percussionists with innovative cymbals, gongs, and bronze percussion instruments. Founded at the beginning of the 20th Century, Paiste lays claim to a number of cymbal firsts, including the first use of 8% bronze, the wavy-edged hi-hat bottom cymbal, the bell-less flat ride, unlathed hammered cymbals, color-coated cymbals, China cymbals with a downturned edge, and the invention of their Signature Bronze Alloy. World-class drummers such as Bill Bruford, Stewart Copeland, and Vinnie Colaiuta have long relied on Paiste cymbals to forge their signature sounds - and you can, too!

Incredible Amazing sounds

The bell is fantastic , the ability to achieve multiple sweet different sounds from the bell to the rim is like no other ride I have used . I have zildjan dek ride, sweet ride , heavy ride.
They are awesome but this one . I call purple power is now the only one needed to get all the sounds of multiple other expensive rides.

The best

Super complex ride with a great bell. If you're looking for a BIG sound this is the ride cymbal for you.

Puts a grin on me Face

I was a bit nervous after I ordered this cymbal, fearing that it would be too loud, pingy, or whooshy for me. I mean it might work for Danny Carey in the Tool mix but not in my jam room. All those fears were put to bed upon playing it for the first time. This cymbal sounds, feels and looks great. It's heavy with a high pitch pings on both the rim and bell. I'm very happy with my purchase thanks to Ryan Holquist. Word of caution, the purple finish is gorgeous and will give you an urge for a bunch of Paiste 900 color sound add ons that you don't need but really will want so be careful.

TOTALLY WORTH EVERY PENNY!!!

This product is the greatest sounding cymbal I have ever played. The bell cuts. you can accent on it by hitting it with the shaft of the stick and it sounds really good. This was just amazing the only con I would say is it's extremely heavy at least for me but I wouldn't let that con distract you from the purchase. The purchase is extremely worth it especially if you love Danny Carey!!!!!

PS Amazing Color

Love this cymbal

I've had this cymbal for a couple years now and I gotta say this cymbal is absolutely beautiful in looks and sound. It works in any genre of music from jazz to metal. In addition to its sound, it feels amazing. It doesn't feel heavy when you're doing steady patterns or ostinatos or any varying pattern. A great cymbal and will definitely suit any player well!
