So the sound is tight and dry, with just a little more warmth than a Mini-Bell, but not nearly so much as a Medium (Ride)." <br> | '''Review''': "This model is an odd-sized specialty ride that could be the answer for big band and rock players with a fairly even right hand attack (people who play beats rather than beats and colors).

Review: "This model is an odd-sized specialty ride that could be the answer for big band and rock players with a fairly even right hand attack (people who play beats rather than beats and colors). What you have here is the bell of a 20" on a 21" cymbal, with a slighly lower profile than a regular AA, but not as flat as that of a Mini-Bell Ride. Whereas the Mini-Bell design yields a very flat, tight ride sound at any volume, the 21" Dry Ride has a warmer, slightly lower pitch, a darker stick sound, and just a slight bit of swell to the sound when you lay into it (but never so much that it swamps the ride). So the sound is tight and dry, with just a little more warmth than a Mini-Bell, but not nearly so much as a Medium (Ride)."
