This special effects crash cymbal has a unique set of laser generated "cut outs" that allow it to produce a quick, dry, and trashy sound used for accenting and punctuating. The brilliant finish makes this "must have" shimmer like any A Custom.

Good fast and trashy

This is a really good cymbal, I traded my Z Custom crash for this and it was worth it in my opinion. The sound is almost like a bigger china splash, because of it's fast and trashy sound. The 18'' is a really good cymbal and would recommend it to other drummers

But I would also like to say even though I have not done this yet that, this cymbal cracks very easy... the weight in this cymbal is paper thin - the thinest of all cymbal weights, so be careful with this cymbal if you do buy it!

i love this cymbal so far its a nice high and crisp sound and decays fast so you don't drown out everything else in the band. its a real thin cymbal so i don't know bout how long it will last but other than that its great and im going to pick up the 18inch now

This cymbal has a great sound to it. It sounds almost like a light china with a Zidjian bite to it. I would recomend thios cymbal to any drummer. Jut don't use it as a rythm cymbal, I did and it has some micro-cracks at the edges of the punch-outs. It blends well with all the cymbals I play with.
