Meinl's Description: <<< - >>>
Review: "Thin is an understatement - this is probably the thinnest sounding 20" crash we've played. So responsive you can crash the body of the cymbal with a small stick tip. You can even crash the bell, which results in a broad-edged 'pahhh'.
You'd have to be the world's lightest player to ride it. It's ultra-sensitive then, with a trashy, sizzling, shimmering, gorgeous sound."
