Review: "Starting with the smallest China cymbal Wuhan makes, the 12" Lion is available in thin and medium weights. Our 12" thin was lower-pitched than the medium, and had a surprisingly low tone for such a small cymbal. Both the medium and the thin 12" Chinas worked well when used for a trashy, splash-cymbal effect and mounted in the normal fashion. When mounted upside-down, both were excellent for quick, multiple hits in rapid succession. They were loud, with the medium weight offering just a bit more volume, and they had almost no sustain; they really barked!
