Review: "The Soundcaster Custom line includes 16" and 18" thin crashes. I took them to a gig that required both power and subtlety. I needed to insert explosive accents played with a stick, plus use mallets for sustained cymbal rolls. The thin crashes spoke with great beauty. They were both exceedingly warm and rich in voice."

Review: "The Thin crashes don't feel substantially thinner than their Medium equivalents, but respond very differently. They are quieter, deeper and more restrained. The 18" model again has a very useable bell - if anything it sounds even better than the Medium crash in this respect."
