A cymbal much more subtle than it seems, offering plenty of experimentation possibilities, you can even use it as a stack by layering it with another cymbal. The sound power is impressive, similar to some chinas but with a different, very trashy sound. Personally, I really like the sound it delivers but it might not please everyone. I suggest, if possible, to try it before. I recommend it for those who like to explore sounds that are a bit out of the ordinary or like to experiment. However, I do not recommend it for beginners who will have trouble mastering and managing it in a set. It is not easy to describe the sound of a cymbal, it is very subjective especially since this Swiss Crash is very unique. However, it is very endearing and to top it all off, it is magnificent with its brushed finish and UFO look. I love it.
