My favorite rides are the Zildjian 20" K Custom Dark, Zildjian 21" Sweet ride, Sabian 21" Vintage ride, Sabian 21" Raw Bell Dry rides in both traditional and brilliant finishes (there is a significant difference in their sound with the edge going to the traditional) and some 20" Ping rides in both the Zildjian A and A Custom series. Other rides I own, but couldn't call them my favorites are a Zildjian A 20" Medium in a brilliant finish, 20" A Custom Medium, Sabian 20" HHX Evolution. I recently sold a very nice sounding Sabian AA Raw Bell Dry ride when I decided to invest in the Zildjian K Custom series. I usually run two rides on most of my kits and the above cymbals give me a very wide palate of sounds for virtually any genre of music without having to compromise.
