Meinl's Description: <<< - >>>
Review: "Unlike the hi-hats and crashes, both of the Extra Dry rides are completely unlathed. They have been hammered from above and below, but not been subjected to any further processes that could compromise the cymbalsmith's realisation.

The 20" model is understandably dry - it has a dark, low tone that is full of complexity. The stick sound it delivers is well separated from the main body, and is strong and distinct.

A near-total lack of wash ensures that patterns are reproduced eloquently."
