SPECIAL EDITION
ANNIVERSARY RIDES
Each year, during the month of November, to commemorate the birth of my workshop, I will be releasing a single, one-of-one special edition Anniversary Ride.
Its size, shape, style and finish will be of my choice during the year in question. Meaning, you might see a 3rd Anniversary Ride that looks and sounds nothing like a 5th Anniversary Ride. In fact, that would be ideal, as I will certainly make sure to introduce something unique to them, either in their looks, sound or design, that makes them stand out and feel distinct from my “regular production”; hence, special edition.
The idea for this event is to be celebratory, I want it to be an exceptional offer. So, with the coming years, I will probably expand the scope of what will be placed inside the box with the cymbal. Meaning, if time, resources and support permits it, maybe a plaque/document, a special stamp, minor percussive bronze trinkets and such could be expected as a part of the anniversary event’s offer. That’s what I envision this evolving into.
Also, I might expand the production quantities of Anniversary models to more than one during November. Though, I do want to keep them limited and special, so probably never more than a couple. For now, one per year feels sensible and achievable. If demand increases with time, I’ll see if I acquiesce to it.
Now, Given the ‘one-of-one’ nature of this instrument, and understanding the possible pluralistic demand for it, to ensure a most fair process for purchase, each year, a registering system will be open during the month of November to enter your name for a random selection process which will determine who gets offered that year’s special edition anniversary ride.
This year’s registration process will be open for 6 days starting today, Tuesday 19th. On Sunday 24th at midday the process will be closed. Then, at 4pm (UTC+1) the random selection will occur, broadcasted via Instagram Live to guarantee that it occurred fairly and properly random.
See you all this Sunday.
