Review: The Alpha line gets a lot of love from hard rock and metal drummers, but this Groove Ride seems to have been made with all types of drummers in mind. It's got a mellow ping, a nice big bell and cuts through just enough without being piercing. The only thing it doesn't do well is crash, but if that's not your thing than no worries. I played this beauty along with 2002s and Big Beats.
