Fully lathed top and bottom
Supports the cymbal’s clear, articulate stick attack.

Independent shopping perspective
Foundry Reserve Flat Ride pairs flat-ride articulation with a complex voice shaped by extensive hand hammering. The 21-inch, medium-thin B20 bronze cymbal has lathing on both sides, keeping the stick attack clear while low undertones remain part of the sound. Its range extends from delicate rhythmic shading to more forceful accents, giving a drummer room to alter the part without changing rides. The hammering marks vary from cymbal to cymbal.
