Starting with the 20" and 22" Jazz Medium rides, these are delightful cymbals. While fairly dry with excellent clarity, they afford a good spread with plenty of smoothly mingling overtones. There's that prized 'taaah' feel as you ride with the stick tip, and, unlike so many modern cymbals, as you slide up to the bell the cymbal remains warm - the bell feels connected, not like a separate instrument, but like a natural extension. The bells are sprightly, ringy and tuneful, but still retain some of the warm, buttery taste of the rest of the cymbal. The 22" is considerably deeper in pitch than the 20", but just as lively and versatile.<br> | Starting with the 20" and 22" Jazz Medium rides, these are delightful cymbals.

Meinl's Description: <<< - >>>
Review: "The 22" Jazz Big Apple differs from the 20" and 22" Jazz Medium rides in that a smaller-headed hammer has been used and it also has a smaller bell. All three cymbals are lathed top and bottom and finished to a brilliant sheen.
Starting with the 20" and 22" Jazz Medium rides, these are delightful cymbals. While fairly dry with excellent clarity, they afford a good spread with plenty of smoothly mingling overtones. There's that prized 'taaah' feel as you ride with the stick tip, and, unlike so many modern cymbals, as you slide up to the bell the cymbal remains warm - the bell feels connected, not like a separate instrument, but like a natural extension. The bells are sprightly, ringy and tuneful, but still retain some of the warm, buttery taste of the rest of the cymbal. The 22" is considerably deeper in pitch than the 20", but just as lively and versatile.
