'''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.

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″. However, it has a fantastically clear, strong, and cutting bell, so if most of your ride time is on the bell, check this one out." <br>
