Review: "What a great cymbal! I’d take it on a gig right away. Its medium-heavy weight gives it great stick response with lots of ping and projection. The high-profile bell sounds clean and speaks through any pattern, allowing for lots of accents. The wash of the ride builds up to a steady level of highs, remaining under control. The sound is clean and predictable. This cymbal spoke well whether used in a rock setting or for light jazz. And I loved the combination of voices when I used it with the hi-hats."
