What is unique about the 22" Mb20 Heavy Bell Ride? The 22" Mb20 Heavy Bell Ride is a very heavy ride cymbal hand hammered from premium B20 bronze alloy. Remarkable is its wide spread bell with an enormous thickness. It has a defined, cutting, and focused ping sound with no wash at all. Especially suitable for fast ride patterns played on top of a double bass figure due to its ability to cut through loud band settings without unwanted build up. Aggressive design, aggressive sound MEINL's Mb20 cymbals are a combination of superior materials, craftsmanship and strength, resulting in an aggressive sound. These cymbals were designed for musicality and maximum projection.

Of all the bronze alloys used for cymbal making, B20 bronze has the highest contingent of tin which makes it very soft and flexible. Cymbals made from B20 bronze sound very dark and musical. They blend in perfectly with the music and have a smooth feel when hit. Of all the cymbal alloys, B20 is more complementary than other cymbal alloys to many styles of music and is generally considered the finest material for making cymbals.

	Mb20 cymbals are traditionally made using the single-cast procedure. This means that every cymbal is crafted from an individual cast blank.		Every Mb20 cymbal is hand hammered into shape. This extensive manufacturing process is the foundation of their outstanding sound characteristics.
	Both the highly-polished cymbal surface and the deep hammer hits result in a very remarkable look, and the line's heavy weights enable an aggressive and cutting sound.
