'''Review:''' "After the success of the 20" and 22"  Oriental  Classic China cymbals (reviewed in the July  1997 issue of MD), Zildjian has now added an 18" size to the line. Although this cymbal has a nasty sound like its big brothers, its smaller size makes it less likely to scare your guitar player when you hit it. Crashes are dark and gongy; ride patterns come out trashy and aggressive. And there is plenty of room to ride, even when the cymbal is mounted the standard way. The "lip" of the cymbal begins about halfway between the bell and the edge."  <br>

Review: "After the success of the 20" and 22" Oriental Classic China cymbals (reviewed in the July 1997 issue of MD), Zildjian has now added an 18" size to the line. Although this cymbal has a nasty sound like its big brothers, its smaller size makes it less likely to scare your guitar player when you hit it. Crashes are dark and gongy; ride patterns come out trashy and aggressive. And there is plenty of room to ride, even when the cymbal is mounted the standard way. The "lip" of the cymbal begins about halfway between the bell and the edge."
