yes you heard that right. This is the Lambo of China cymbals.
After you play it , u forget Zildjian, Meinl, Paste, the holy china and Chad Smith himself, there is ONLY one china, and it's this.
You don't need to hit it with force, it has acceleration like a super car.
Sound is very versatile, could send the hardest breakdowns with this, as well as play snarky puppy too.
There was a miss with shipping but it has nothing to do with the product and support was helpful as always.
I can't yet commend on the durability through the years since it's thin.
I don't believe you need the 19'', this is legit loud.
The really bad part about this is the price, 459 for a china is just too much, should be 399 tops. Sabian got the magic sound with complexes but they got greedy too.
