Our Diamond
series is comprised of very complex and semi-dark toned
cymbals. The series features a traditional, classic finish
with fine lathing and plenty of hand hammering for a
beautiful appearance and shine (the cymbals are not
silvery in color; these have a normal cymbal color). Like
all Saluda cymbal series, these are hand crafted, in fine
B20 bronze alloy.
The Diamond series is
geared for those who want their cymbals to be a little
darker, more expressive, responsive, very complex and
lively. These are not dry and they are not overly bright.
These are excellent cymbals for using in many musical
genres in which you need a cymbal for a rock gig but to
take the same cymbal to a jazzy gig the next night (with
lighter sticks of course).
We consider this a
'wide open series'. This means you have a very wide range
of selections from thin to extra heavy (from brighter to
darker) and offered in splashes, crashes, vented crashes,
crash rides, rides, chinas, hi-hats, china splashes, china
crashes, flat ride and gongs.
For the classic cymbal
look with plenty of versatility, this is a solid series to
get.
