Meinl's Description: <<< - >>>
Review: "Can you say "pang"? If so, you'll understand the 22" China ride. To begin with, it features a distinctive hammering pattern. Add to that its large diameter, thin weight, wide upturned edge, and four rivets, and you have a big, dark, washy cymbal with a trashy sound and lots of sound. When played gently with a small stick, the china offers character with control. Hit it harder with a larger stick, and watch out!"
