Review: "Included with these test instruments was a 12" 'Rock Splash' (£60). It's meant for those of you who like the idea and sound of a small punctuation cymbal but can't be doing with the hassle of breaking them and buying more. So, with you in mind, Sabian have really strengthened and thickened their brilliant splash. It speaks quickly enough and has a good deal of middle and sizzle; it should stand up to wear and tear. However it still needs to be respected and must be struck properly; never hit through it. Always return the stick immediately after the stroke. This is a very strident cymbal and you really know when it's been hit."
