Zildjian A0119 18" A Uptown Ride
Dry, Controlled & Perfectly Articulate for Modern Players
The Zildjian A0119 18" A Uptown Ride is a compact, tightly focused ride cymbal designed for drummers who want maximum stick definition and minimal wash. With unlathed top and bottom surfaces and deep, extensive hammering, it delivers a dry, controlled sound, very pronounced stick definition, and minimal overtones or sustain – making it ideal for small stages, jazz combos, studio sessions, and low-volume environments.
Small Size, Big Personality
Despite its reduced diameter, the Uptown Ride remains highly musical. Its B20 bronze construction provides a dark, throaty wash when played on the edge, and it even produces a surprisingly forceful crash when pushed. Players love its blend of portability and expressiveness, offering tight articulation with the ability to open up when needed.
