Signature Rides For Top Drummers Steve and
Alan White
January 28, 1999SABIAN is pleased to announce the introduction of new Signature Ride cymbals
for the UK's two most popular drummers, Steve White, of chart-topper Paul Weller,
and his brother Alan White, of major rockers Oasis.
The 20" Steve White Signature Ride, designed for Steve's funky blend of
Rock, R 'n' B and Jazz is a medium weight model with a strong bell, definite
stick articulation across the bow, and a fullwash ride sound across its edge.
The 22" Alan White Signature Ride, created for the loud and full sound
of Oasis, is dominated by a larger, louder bell, a bigger, fuller sound across
its bow, and a roaring ride response when played across its edge. Because both
drummers are dedicated fans of 60's cymbal sounds, these rides are fully hand
hammered for warmer and more toneful responses.
Commented Jerome Marcus, SABIAN artist representative with UK distributor Arbiter
Plc: "Steve and Alan White are highly influential in the UK and have followings
in all the major markets. Their taste in cymbals is exactly what's happening
in music today, and that's why today's Pop and Rock drummers who are going retro
will find the sounds they're after in these two very versatile models."
Hand crafted from pure B20 SABIAN bronze, Steve and Alan White Signature Ride
cymbals are available in Natural and Brilliant Finish. They are protected against
faults attributable to material and workmanship by the SABIAN Warranty Protection
Program. For more information, visit Sabian at http://www.sabian.com/ |
