Review: "The 16" and 18" ZBT Rock crashes created a complementary pair pitched approximately a minor third apart. Both crashes responded quickly with a full crash sound and a shimmering wash, followed by a gradual decay. Other than a difference in volume, their response held true regardless of whether they were struck with a tip of the stick on the surface or with the stick's shoulder on the edge.

The bells of both cymbals were playable, though not isolated, making them useful for effects but less so for ride patterns. Of the two crashes, I preferred the 18" due to its fuller, longer sound."
