Zildjian's Description: <<< - >>>
Review: "The 22" ride was clean and surprisingly bright considering its size and tremendous weight. The bell sound would cut through the noise of a ship being built."

Review written by Johnny Kirke ("Zildjian Impulse Cymbals", One Two Testing, May 1984)

Review: It's in the "Heavy" weight class, so as you'd expect, it has a bright "ping", with lots of stick definition. It's unlathed, so like the Paiste RUDE series, it has a sort of unrefined sound that words can't describe as well as hearing it for yourself. The bell, when struck with the stick, is nice.
