So I've been looking for a decent 22" or 24" ride lately on the used market. I went into a local shop today and walked out with this 22" vintage cymbal. The guy who worked there said it was used by Polka legend Walter Ostanek's drummer. I live in St. Catharines and the shop is named Ostanek's so it's not that unlikely that stuff of his would end up there. It has no markings except for a stamp which was quite difficult to find at first. I haven't weighed it, but it feels like a medium-weight cymbal for its size. Lots of patina, a few dings some minor keyholing, but still sounds great.
And now the pics
I've got my full kit set up, although I'll probably update this with some pics of my gig setup in a bit. But for now, here's the 22" ride, with 18" china, 20" ride, and 18" hats.
