Vintage Shelly Manne sounding ride

Loading...

I am looking for a ride cymbal that will give me a very "ping" sound, almost a flat ride effect, much like the sound Shelly Manne used to get on his great recordings. Any suggestions??

Can you find an example of Shelly performing with one of those cymbals off YouTube and post a link to it here? That would help greatly.

In the meantime you can check out some performances in here:

If your name is the same as the eBay one, welcome to the forum Kerry. I live close to L.A. (Inland Empire) and have a few rides for sale, including a 22" Zildjian flat ride (late 80's-90's K) PM me if interested.

Its better to have people think you're an idiot, than to open your mouth and prove them wrong, unless you doubt yourself then speak away....

...vintage Avedis 22" ride. Look for old 40s or 50s era.
