Meinl's Description: <<< - >>>
Review: "The 20" medium ride is a bit thinner than the 20" Power Ride, but the overall construction is the same. Since it's
lighter in weight, the medium has more wash and overtones but was still easy to control.
The stick definition also stayed in tact, but it was a little glassier than the heavier model. The bell sound was clean but produced some vibration through the body of the cymbal, which caused overtones to be heard. This ride proved to be a great general-application cymbal, as I had no problems using it in a wide variety of musical settings when recording it in my home studio."
