19” Zildjian A Armand Beautiful Baby Ride [2008] 1800g

A beautifully light and expressive tribute to legendary cymbal maker Armand Zildjian. The 19” ride was Armand’s favorite cymbal size, and the Beautiful Baby Ride was created to commemorate his legacy and lifelong passion for cymbal making. At only 1800g, this example is wonderfully responsive and crashable, delivering a bright, musical vintage A Zildjian character with an open wash and warm sustain. The three rivet cluster adds a smooth, dynamic sizzle without overwhelming the stick definition. Its compact size, light weight and fast response also make it a superb left side ride alongside a larger main ride.
