Paiste's Description: <<< - >>>
Review: "The 18" Rock china was similarly effective, though its sound was brighter and harsher than that of the regular 18" model."
- Review written by Martin Patmos ("Paiste's Redesigned Alpha Cymbals - Updated Looks And Sound", Modern Drummer, September 2006, p. 36)
Review: "The 18" Rock China was very loud, aggressive, and bright, with a long sustain. If you want more of a short white-noise effect, I'd suggest stacking a crash on it."
- Review written by Michael Dawson ("Paiste Alpha Brilliant Series Cymbals", Modern Drummer, May 2010, p.23)
