It's got the depth and low-end of a larger cymbal, but speaks with the quickness of an 18".
Clear, woody stick definition which hovers above a dark, smoky, swirling spread.
And, honestly; check the sound-file and ask yourself if you've ever heard such a righteous bell on a thinnish, low-pitched, complex cymbal?
I love this thing as a straight-up crash cymbal, too.
The solitary split brass Agop rivet gives it just enough sizzle for an additional dimension.
