Bosphorus Traditional 20" Medium Ride

Traditional's intricate style of over hammering imparts a unique temper and relaxation for a warm, vowel-like attack, with a relatively deep pitch and rich, complex wash of controlled overtones. They are diverse enough to be used in delicate acoustic situations and aggressive enough to be played in arena rock concerts.

    Traditional Ride

• Offers brawnier attack and more articulated bell sound without compromising the full-bodied pitch and delicate harmonic characteristics.

  "The beautiful 20-inch Traditional Medium ride offers a brawnier attack and more articulated bell sound without compromising the full-bodied pitch and delicate harmonic characteristics so prized by acoustic jazz drummers." - Chip Stern
  
  "I play three or four weekends a month with a funk/r&b/soul band that has a tendency to get a pretty loud stage volume, so I need cymbals that can handle this. Recently I've been using some Traditional Medium rides, I have used a 20" and a 21" and have been very happy with them both in that setting. I also play jazz gigs regularly and I've taken those same Mediums out on those hits and been very pleased. They remind me (especially the 20) of an Elvin Jones sound. I don't know that I would play them if I was playing with a very loud rock band, but then there are other tools for that task, like the Bosphorus Gold series. Outside of that setting though I think they hit the mark and are very versatile." - Jashou P.
  
  "The Traditional Series is the most universally applicable line of cymbals from Bosphorus. You’ll find cymbals of all types here, and I’d say it’s the best option for drummers who play a bit of everything. If you play jazz, you could get a set of lightweight Traditional cymbals with darker tones. If you play rock, you could get a heavier set with brighter tones. The cool thing is that you can use the cymbals to play both styles as well. They’ve highly versatile, covering most bases quite well." - Brett Clur
