Review: "The 22" had many of the same characteristics, but the overtones had more of a tendency to build and obscure some of the articulation. The pitch was also lower and verged on being "gong-y." It's by no means a bad cymbal, but one would have to be selective about when and where to use it.
One final observation: Both cymbals had brighter, clearer bells than the typical K-type cymbal, which adds to their versatility."
