Review: "The 21" Nuance ride joins the company's Byzance Jazz line and it is a signature model of Berklee Professor Ralph Peterson.
This range is partially lathed. Starting 2" in from the rim of each cymbal, the coarse lathing pattern runs up just shy of where the domed bell shape begins. Coupled with the large hand-hammed marks across the bow and smaller ones on the bell, this generates a striking aesthetic that evokes a real sense of tradition in the cymbal-making process.
The rivets in the Nuance ride add a shimmer to the natural decay. Both cymbals are very loud and quite sharp, producing an extremely metallic, almost ping-y attack. This gives them the ability to cut through a mix like a razor blade - which might of course come in rather useful, although can be unruly in more of a subtle jazz context.
Crash one of these cymbals at your own peril! For us, they almost lean towards more of an FX cymbal. As a result, we would wager that purchasing one of these as a main ride would most likely leave you disappointed.
The colossal diameter of the bells are certainly a novelty though, and do work very nicely for Latin-style grooves and bell patterns. Once again though, they are extremely loud!
