Meinl's Description: <<< - >>>
Review: "The 20" heavy ride produced a loud, cutting "ping" with very little wash. The bell sound soared to compete with an amplified Stratocaster that wailed at untold sound levels. (In turn, the loudness of this cymbal forced the others to turn up!) Perfect for headbanging skin-bashers who expect their performances to be just as mind-numbing as those of their bandmates."

Review: "The 20" Heavy is a great, easily crashable ride for very heavy, punk-inspired blasting, but it cleans up nicely when struck on the bow. Stick definition is well-balanced and powerful and the bell clear and connected to the rest of the cymbal´s response."
