Sabian's Description: <<< - >>>
Review: "Funnily enough, the 18in crash-ride (£75) has a better bell and is still a relatively "sticky" if undistinguished ride. But on the crash side I was impressed: stable and silvery, suggestive of the clarity of a Paiste with the tone of a Zildjian. Which can't be bad."
