Review: "The A Zildjian Deep ride was a favorite of jazz-rock fusion drummers in the 1970s. (Peter Erskine used a 22" model on all of his recordings with the legendary Weather Report.) The newly reintroduced Deep rides feature a very simple design, with no fancy hammering, lathing, or coatings. Their overall tone is thick and clean, with excellent stick definition. The buildup of overtones is minimal. The bell is loud and solid.
These are heavy cymbals that produce a low-end sustain when played with a heavy hand. The 20" Deep ride also works well as a crash/ride, but the 22" is a bit too heavy to create any type of substantial crash effect. If you’re looking for a ride cymbal with plenty of “ping” and not a lot of “wash,” you should give the Deep ride a try."
