Zultan 18" Q Thin Crash

I have Zultan Caz crashes 17" and 20" and love them for my rock band, but I wanted something a bit more sharp for live performances to cut through the guitars. Also, I didn't want any higher pitched cheap cymbals (I play as an occasional gigging/recording amateur for a very long time, so I'm budget consciouss, but also I have a developed taste for drums and I won't settle for a bad instrument). This is perfect for me! It's louder (I woudn't use it for extreme metal though) and it is darker, without the very shrill overtones, especially this thin version. I would recommend it for rock and similar styles, especially if you don't have an unlimited amount of money to spend on well known pro cymbals, but still want a pro sound for gigs. This sounds much more expensive! This is my fourth Zultan cymbal and I love them all. Never had any problems with them - I'm not extra hard hitter though, but I'm no gentle by any means.
