The Sabian Stratus Dry ride cymbal delivers a wide, low-pitched wash with impressive control, combining the expansive sound drummers expect from a larger ride with the focused response needed for modern playing styles. Lightweight construction keeps the cymbal responsive and expressive, while heavy hammering contributes dry character, controlled sustain and a balanced wash that remains musical without becoming overwhelming. Crafted from B20 bronze, the Stratus Dry ride offers clear stick articulation across the bow, while a hammered bell provides strong definition and cutting presence when additional projection is needed. Whether laying down time, accenting grooves or opening up for larger musical passages, the cymbal maintains clarity and control while preserving its dark, textured voice. For drummers seeking a modern dry ride with expansive wash, articulate response and controlled sustain, the Sabian Stratus Dry ride cymbal delivers a distinctive balance of size, musicality and definition.
