Sabian's Description: <<< - >>>
Review: "By comparison we found the 22" and 24" AA Apollos a little thinner-toned and tinnier with a shriller, spreadier and ringier wash. Brighter than the previous two, these are versatile rides with a modern slant. In this case we preferred the 24" which could suit power rock as well as jazz and big band.

Additionally, all these cymbals have a great 'splang' factor: that corruscating sound you get when you half crash with the flat of the stick shoulder on the area close to the bell.

Indeed there are so many colours you can get from them, aided by their sheer size. Most will find the 22" variants sufficient, while the 24" versions may feel a bit unwieldy at first. But they are hugely tempting, delivering even more extreme helpings in a similar vein."
