Meinl's Description: <<< - >>>
Review: "With the 20" ride that wash is indeed mostly pure, while with the 22" there is additionally a hint of something of a more exotic, dusky flavour. The strong stick response works especially well with a slightly heavier stick and a thicker bead. The latter helps broaden the tone, which can be rather thin and piercing since it is so far removed from the deeper and warmer wash that is spreading beneath.
A lighter, thinner stick fared less well because of this effect. As with the well-defined stick response, so the bell also feels somewhat detached from the ride sound. With a hard ‘ting’ both bells are strong and cutting.
Thus, although the initial feeling was that both rides are a bit shrill, as we got used to them we realised that their sharp drive will appeal to many. They also have a good dynamic range, so you can play from soft to loud and get a sure response all the way up."
