Zildjian's Description: <<< - >>>
Review: "The Zildjian A Medium Thin Crash Cymbal (part of their Avedis Zildjian line) might be called a “bread and butter cymbal”. If you are going to have just two crashes in your kit, and you play either jazz or big band, this cymbal would be there. Buddy Rich used one of these in his set of three (one ride, two crashes). That says just about everything that could be said. It’s bright, fast, and neutral.
It’s great as a crash, and I own one of these which I use when I am playing jazz. As to using it as a ride, I don’t think so, but it does have a distinguished “ping”. Maybe in a laid back jazz number it would work during a tenor sax solo. The bell, on the other hand, is crisp, with a nice tone that gets through, but doesn’t cut."
