Everyone’s ear is different, I always adored Joe Morello - so my ear gravitates to a brighter sound. I wasn’t in love with the super dry trend going on a few years ago, but I love flat rides. The comeback renaissance of small cymbal makers is beautiful to see, because I’m hearing new unique sounds all the time now. Instead of the big box flavor of the month I grew up with.

Yeah Morello and his Zildjian Avedis was always classic stample for me how 50s 60s As should sound. If it was me I would go with Ks in that small band settings but he made As sing and sound absolutley wonderful.

That 22" prototype is the KILLER, fantastic !

LOVING that 22. That bell is just so clear, I would say it would sit nicely being used in a heavier band. Time to start rummaging down the back of my sofa.

Second prototype sounded amazing

Tim!!!! I hope the snare is okay!!!! Your reaction man! I would have been freaking out! You definitely kept it cool!

haha yeah that was a fun surprise...

If I’d been your snare, I'd have fallen off the shelf too! The vibe of the cymbals activates one’s mojo! The sound is really magical! I wouldn't say either of those two cymbals is better than the other. They complement each other perfectly and make a unique combo. Whichever position I would place the 22" and 24" in, I believe each can work great as the main ride in different songs. They both ride smoothly, have awesome bells, and the sound when activated in the middle position is otherworldly, and with the drier 22", that sound when bursting in the middle position is so unique I've never heard anything like it. I deeply admire your work, Timothy! Thanks for your videos. Keep it up!❤

Absolutely love the backstory, it’s really nice seeing an independent cymbal maker go deep and helps players understand the whole process, love the 24”!

So beautiful! Sounds exquisite.

All 3 cymbals sound great !

THESE CYMBALS! The best!

The 2nd cymbal, 22”, now that’s what I’m talking about! Gotta get one. Sounds incredible.

I love your cymbal work and commentary. I have been playing Master Work cymbals recently because of that dry expressive quality. Very nice work with your cymbal smithing.

Thanks!

Both great rides, really like the look of the scratch latheing, too. My preference was the 22", the bell is clearer, and overall it seemed to have less wash (I'm not a fan of too much wash, and sustain on ride cymbals). I'd love a 20", similar to the 22" you just demonstrated. Great work, Timothy.

Love the 24

I’m a 70’s rock drummer/listener and I really like 24” . it’s got a wonderful low end roar.

Oh my good lord! That 22” is killer! It’s got that at old “A” zing, but dry enough to not wash all over the place! It reminds me of my Kerope’s with a brighter bell? Good job!

Both are great and I'd use them just the way he has it set up

Nice!

That 24..👌🏽

Was just about to try to order a Duco from you! Haha

I think I like the lower tone of 24" personally. I enjoy the dryness and how the wash of the cymbal remains subtle. Nice bell sound. Both sizes are excellent however!

I prefer the second cymbal for sure.

The 22 sounds nice good bell to

So these are right up my alley.My weeks look like Jazz on Sunday, Country Monday, Metal Tuesday and Americana on Thursday or some variance of that.I wind up using a ride and a crash or a couple of rides and a crash most of the time, so I need to be able to ride on them all and crash on them all.I also love playing the bells on all of them so I like that you are really focusing on them as well as the rest of the cymbal.I am going to the Chicago Drum Show in May and I think you are coming?I hope so and it would be cool if you had some of these cymbals there.I like them both, but I think something like the 22" could be my main ride, I love so may things about it.I have a Crescent that is similar, but it is too dry and there is no shimmer to it.Yours has dryness, but also shimmer and a great bell to boot.

That one is Jonathan's personal cymbal. I can make another similar to it though! I’ve got a cymbal commission form (as well as one for hats and crashes) on the website. It has a bunch of info regarding the process and what to expect. reveriedrums.com/shop/p/ride-cymbal-commission

The 24" bell pitch seems "off" to me. Otherwise great.

@@ReverieDrumCo At 10:30 I hear it most prevalent. Like two fundamental (not sub) tones separated by a few hertz causing a vibrato. The harder you hit the bell at other parts of the video, the less it is noticeable.

@bernardrooney105

I was thinking I’d see a 20 came out. I’m betting it’s there somewhere. Love the shape and its effects on the 22. The way the wash is contained on the 24 is real virtuosity, but yes, maybe a slightly larger bell.

Do you also ship cymbals to Europe?
