'''Review:''' "The 20" Dark Raw Bell ride ($560) lived up to its name in all respects. Its unlathed appearance has a lot of color variation, and the finish gives the impression that the cymbal was unearthed from a spud garden. Fittingly, the tone was quite earthy and wickedly dark. The noticeably different- size hammering marks made for a drier sound and a pronounced stick attack. The untreated raw bell projected a distinctly dark chime, and crashing the ride created an intense, murky wash that nicely contrasted the definition of the stick. I used the ride during some rehearsals for a rock gig and found it didn't have enough presence or volume to penetrate the mix of a standard five-piece band. This cymbal would work better for jazz or in an acoustic setting where the ride doesn't have to compete with overdriven amps." <br> | '''Review:''' "The 20" Dark Raw Bell ride ($560) lived up to its name in all respects.
