Review: "Being a much larger cymbal, the 20" A Custom was an altogether different and wilder beast. It delivered shattering attack with a seething, trashy tone that rose above everything else for the moment it erupted before rapidly decaying. As with the 14" model, once the opening crash had choked back, a longer but quieter decay took over.
The combination of the toppy and trashy elements gave this cymbal piercing but shimmering qualities. Where china cymbals are abrupt and dry, this EFX behaved technically more like a crash, swelling and dissipating. The frequencies involved and the ferociousness of the response suggests a blurring, if not a redrawing, of boundaries."
