 January 17, 2002
The Avedis Zildjian Company has announced the introduction of the all-new 20" A. Custom Sizzle Ride as part of the 10 year Anniversary celebration of the original launch of the Award winning A Custom cymbal range.
Zildjian is introducing a pre-riveted Ride cymbal for the perfect "sizzle" sound. The all-new 20" A Custom Sizzle Ride is a medium thin-weight Ride cymbal with clear stick definition and a sparkling spread and is pre-drilled with the traditional configuration of six rivets. Like all A Custom models the new Sizzle Ride is available in a Brilliant Finish.
"We have received requests from drummers around the globe for a standard "Sizzle" Ride cymbal", said Zildjian's Marketing Communications Manager, Gregg Stein. "The all-new A. Custom Sizzle Ride is the perfect Ride cymbal for the drummer looking for the crisp, sweet and shimmering sound of an A. Custom combined with the added twist of that unique "sizzle" sound. This year being the 10th Anniversary since the launch of the A Custom cymbal range, we are proud to announce the introduction of innovative models such as the new A Custom Sizzle Ride", Gregg continued.
Developed with the assistance of legendary drummer Vinnie Colaiuta the award-winning A Custom cymbal range utilizes radical rotary hammering techniques, thin weights and a striking brilliant finish for a crisp, sweet, sophisticated A Zildjian sound. Not too dark, not too bright -- cymbals that are just right for modern music.
