Review: (NOTE: This review takes place after the entire series was re-designed in 2001)
"Making a brilliant China cymbal is revenge on loud guitarists everywhere. The 17" brilliant K China is mucho souped-up.When smacked as a crash, this baby’s a firecracker...no, a cherry bomb. When I played the cymbal right-side-up in a ride position, I achieved some control by playing it in the wide curve of the flange. It was a bit more reserved that way."
