Review: "Striking around the bow of the ride shows this cymbal is awarded with significant bite, producing a crisp sharp 'ping'. Its frosty wash is easily controllable by striking in a variety of positions - up near the bell there is little or no build but down near the edge it's full-on from the first hit.
These cymbals are designed to sever through walls of distorted guitar with a pitch that is high, but not at all unpleasant. The medium-sized unobtrusive bell is sufficiently sized for the stick shoulder to clout without having to think carefully about aiming for it. When given a few hefty wallops, this produces a slightly lower pitch than the bow but speaks volumes, helping elevate any guitar solo or bond a middle-eight section."
