product specialist David Williams: "Sabian designed 'multi-hole' cymbals as far back as the mid-nineties, but they went public when Dave Weckl sought a specific sound and our response was the multi-holed HHX O-Zone Crash. This holed concept transforms the sound of any cymbal, making it more responsive while increasing its aggression and bite. With the Legacy O-Zone Ride it is possible to play sounds that are dark and dirty, or really lay into it and create a storm of roaring aggression. Whether you're looking at it or listening to it, there is nothing else like an O-Zone."Added Dave Weckl: "The O-Zone Crash has created such a sensation; players love that dirty, biting sound. With the O-Zone Ride we've created a cymbal that is truly different but very useful in a wide range of playing applications. This is one of those cymbals that have such a unique voice that there is no denying its ability to influence the sound of any players sound."The HHX Legacy O-Zone Ride is a medium-thin weight that-due to the holes-responds like a thin cymbal. Playing the upper area creates a raw, trashy response. Playing the lower half produces a ride sound that combine's soft stick articulation with a dirty wash of tone. Playing with power will generate a large, dark roar of tone.HHX Legacy O-Zone cymbals are individually handcrafted from Sabian B20 'cast' bronze. They are available exclusively in Natural Finish, and are quality-protected by a special SABIAN 2-Year Warranty.
