I picked this up yesterday, the shop i went to had four 20" wide rides and i spent about an hour choosing. It is simply the best cymbal I have ever played, incredibly versatile. I mainly play combo jazz, funk, and big band, and it is perfect for all of them.
I am actually lost for words on how good it is. I use a rattle chain on it a lot for jazz and it mixes so well with the wash, and It crashes like a dream. The stick definition is also very good. If i had to say something that could be slightly better about it, I think the bell could be taken up a notch volume wise, but that is a tiny tiny tiny issue compared to how impressive this cymbal is.

I would seriously recommend this cymbal to anyone, and i would also recommend Bosphorus to anyone. Surely nothing can beat a completely handmade cymbal nowadays.
