This Meinl Soundcaster Fusion thin ride cymbal has a soft feel with an articulate response. Perfect for any application where a washy ride sound and a clear ping are both needed, this thin ride cymbal has a great stick sound with a nice controllable wash. The Meinl Soundcaster cymbal is the result of extensive research and development efforts in finding new and exciting sounds. The cymbals are made from B12 bronze alloy for a smooth, rich sound with great dynamics and expression. This Soundcaster Fusion thin ride cymbal is ideal for the creative and expressive drummer. Its finish has an outstanding look combining two different finishes in one cymbal. The lathed surface section creates a thinner edge compared to the unlathed, brilliant finish area at the middle of the cymbal. These different material thicknesses effect a warm and shimmering sound with an enhanced wash.
