If your band dips into really quiet volumes, you’ll have to see if you like that particular wash for your particular musical needs. The 20″ Rock ride is a single-voiced ping, and a bit high-pitched at that. But that’s about normal for a 20″.

Zildjian's Description: <<< - >>>
Review: "Stepping down 2″ we find the 20″ Medium Heavy ride. It has a lot more wash under a wet, monasterial ping that is higher pitched than the 22″, with a bell that gives a thin-shelled, old-school sound like something from 1960s Latin jazz. Like an old jazz cymbal, this one has lots of wash, but I couldn’t hear that wash at all while jamming along.
