Zultan 18" Rock Beat Crash

thin cymbal,reacts quickly. medium dark pitch with sharp sparkling overtones.medium volume medium sustain. brilliant finish:hard to keep clean.

I got both the 16'' and 18'' Rock Beat crashes to use in a practice enviroment.

They have a good response even when hit with a somewhat lighter touch. I play them mostly for hardrock/metal but have also used them for Jump Blues.
They get dirty real quick though, so be careful with handling!

Bang for buck!

This crash cymbal is the best low cost cymbal i have ever tried. Better than all "high brand low cost" alternatives which usually have a cheaper bronze alloy (B8 or B10). This sounds like a real cymbal with the only flaws might be some minor cosmetic stuff (like black spots, or some imperfections in the casting) which so far har not caused any cracking. Basically you get two cymbals for the price of one "real" cymbal. I would recommend this to anyone for rehearsal and live gigs where wear and tear is common. I have also used them in the studio with good result.

Enough spending tons of money on other known brands. Finally a brand that offers amazing quality without costing a fortune!

So far I've added to my set the 18 Rock Beat crash, the 14 Rock Beat HiHats and the 18 Rock Beat China Holey and I love them! Will definitely try other series as well

I'm pro, gigging hard rock drummer for 30 years. Never met crash cymbal wich won't break sometime. I have 16" and 19" Aja crashes for 3 years now.. Now a 18" for my second drumset.

very nice crash cymbal, i recorded several albums with them, and i am absolutely shure, that it was good money speinding for me, at all. for me just one minus, they are bit thin.
