Developed in conjunction with studio legend Steve Gadd, the K Custom Session Series cymbals replicate the close-mic'd, muted tones that became his signature sound in the 1980s and 1990s.

The 18" K Custom Session Ride is a very heavy, un-lathed cymbal, with a well-defined ping, muted, dry sustain and powerful, cutting bell.

Years of production: ca. 1990-present

Composition: 80% copper, 20% tin, traces of silver

Associated artists: Glenn Kotche, Steve Gadd, Dave Weckl
