22" Zildjian Ping Ride


Hey, i have a buddy at school, who is selling his 22" ping ride, for 180 bucks. I was actually looking at buying some new cymbals and i heard highly of this cymbal, now i have some questions if some of you folks could answer.

- How will the large 22" sound have a difference to a 20"?
- Is 180 bucks for this cymbal good? (barely been used)
- Is this ride good for crashing also?
- I play some light indie (colour revolt, brand new) but also more rock stuff like saosin/alexisonfire/moneen, will this ride do the trick?

thanks a lot!

If it's an A ,it reviews well if any help.

You should try it beside the 20" and see what difference it has.
Never played one of these but the bigger cymbals are sometimes surprisingly better than 20" for crashing. I have a 21 sweet ride and it's more crashable than any 20" iv'e played. Bottom line is you have to try for yourself.
If it's an A and as new, is looks cheaper than the the retail price so a good buy, but do you want the cymbal ???

Check out the Zildjian web sight, they have demos of both the 20" 22" and the A sweet ride, for instants Ive heard the 20" A custom ping you can crash. test it out with ur presant kit, because he can go to your house
(I dont think you live in the music store, I Used some hats from a local music halls because i forgot mine(not relly) and it helped).

Just play this cymbal with your set and other cymbals. If you like the sound BUY IT. If not PASS. It's not designed to be a crash. If you're looking for a large crash, look elsewhere. Good luck. Should be one h*ll of a nice cymbal if the sound is right for your ears.
