Back to Product Information
Sound: Let me preface my review by saying that I bought this cymbal used for about $80. My experience may have been affected by previous ownership, but this cymbal was (and remained under my ownership) completely free of any apparent cracks or defects. The cymbal sounded awful once I had it put together with my kit. It had one of the flattest crashes I have ever heard, and I can honestly say it sounded far worse than the B8 it replaced. The cymbal is thick, and it would leave a horrible sounding ring after I hit it that sounded like a doorbell. I don't know what types of metal go into it, but I would assume brass plays a factor. It's heavy, clunky, and it sounds terrible. Quality: It works as a stop gap. If you find one in a trash can (it was probably mine) and you have literally no other option (other than starter-kit cymbals) I guess you can use it until you get the $80.00 together to buy something better. Anything better. Value: If you just need a cymbal to hit, you can find better for less money. Maybe a drummer who hits real hard might be interested in this, but I just can't see it being useful for anyone. The Wow Factor: Again, just a bad sounding cymbal. In my experience, almost anything would sound more musical. Overall: I kept this cymbal for about two months, until I saved up enough to get a Z Custom instead. That is a much better cymbal, and it only cost me about $40.00 more.
