similiar to a Zildjian Sweet ride or 22" medium A.
I.e. Nice wash with a decent crash without being too dark.

I have a 20" AAX studio ride which is nice. There is good tonal variation across the cymbal and a large bell too for a nice ping. I use it for gigs as I think it carries better than my AAX dry ride. That is not so tonally varied with much less wash. Hope that helps. If you want some sound clips, I'll see what I can organise.

Sabian AA or AAX as Wendy suggested, my mate has the AA ride on his studio kit and it's a bit too washy for my liking but i reckon this is probably what your'e after,,

The guy does have a big bunch of Sabians I suppose, it'd be nice to keep the theme going I suppose!

Why not sell all your Sabians and buy a whole set of Zildjians based around the ride you like?

Or buy the Zildjian ride you like, rub off the label and get some new Sabian transfers.

Or just buy the Zildjian ride you like.
