Istanbul TW-JRR22 – 22″ Tony Williams Ride JR

Towards the end of his tenure with Miles Davis, Tony Williams had already begun to use a heavier Ride cymbal to compete with his mentor’s increasing use of electric instruments. But for the allout electronic assault of his own Lifetime group, Williams needed a Ride cymbal that could cut through and be heard yet at the same time would still retain the deeply expressive, darker, trashier cymbal sounds that had become his trademark. In tribute to that epic era in Tony’s evolution, the Artisans at Istanbul Mehmet bring you the next phase in the Tony Williams Tribute Cymbal series.it.
