Music Instruments: Unique Ride Cymbal for The Police Stewart Copeland
Unique Ride Cymbal
Nottwil/Switzerland – The renowned Swiss cymbal maker Paiste announces the introduction of the Signature
22″ Blue Bell Ride at the 2007 Summer NAMM Show.
This special Ride cymbal was created by Paiste’s Sound Development team in collaboration with the legendary
drummer Stewart Copeland, who has inspired an entire generation of drummers with his unique playing
style as the driving force behind The Police, one of the most influential and groundbreaking rock bands of
the past few decades. The introduction of this model coincides with the celebrated world-wide reunion tour
of The Police.
The 22″ Blue Bell Ride is based on the Signature 22″ Dark Metal Ride, and was modified according to Stewart
Copeland’s exacting specifications. In the process, this development reintroduces Paiste’s unique ColorSound
coating, as the cymbal is coated partially blue on top and fully on the bottom.
The 22″ Blue Bell Ride features a dry, slightly dark, raw and melodic sound. Its dominant characteristics
include a clear, glassy ping and a distinctive strong, deep bell, in accordance with Stewart Copeland’s Ride
playing technique within the context of the music of The Police.
As a tribute to Stewart’s collaborative effort in the creation of this unique cymbal, the label “
The Rhythmatist”and Stewart Copeland’s “Rider” logo appear in conjunction with the model designation on the cymbal.
Signature
cymbals are entirely made by hand in Switzerland using traditional methods that have remainedunchanged in over half a century.
ColorSound is a proprietary coating for cymbals developed by Paiste in the1980s, which optimizes the effect of a coating on cymbal sound and is extremely durable.
