    Everything about this cymbal is beautiful. It sounds great on the bell, as a ride, and as a complimentary crash. The tones are full and shine through in the best way.

  • Multi-function at its best

    This cymbal is perfect for a multitude of sounds. The cymbal is fairly thin, which gives it that distinct silvery and washy sound. The definition of the ride and the bell make it perfect for jazz, but it's thin enough to crash for a huge rock sound. The volume can go from extremely quiet to face-melting. A great choice for someone looking for a huge sound, or someone who needs everything all-in-one.

  • Amazing ride

    I bought this cymbal around august or september, and I'm still deeply in love with it. It's such a warm ride, perfect for that classic rock sound. It's pretty loud too, when you crash it it feels like your ears are going to bleed. It sustains for the longest time, it's amazing. Although it goes without mentioning, John Bonham used Big Beat cymbals in the early days of Led Zeppelin, so that speaks fo itself. This cymbal is worth every penny, down to the last cent.
