- Here’s an absolute sleeper cymbal! It’s dark and very smooth sounding with a gorgeous Full Crash tone and robust bell - especially for an 18”. It’s one of the most versatile cymbals I have.
- This harder to find golden goddess perfectly blends warm, very dark, low pitched and very strong stick articulation with a more controlled smaller 18” size.
- Fully lathed and Hand Hammered in the Traditional fashion giving it a stunning warmth.
- Weighing in at 1853 grams, this Traditional yields a pronounced chime-like stick attack that is wonderfully low pitched, especially for a 18”, and cuts quite well while still remaining dark and very warm.
-
The 18” size gives it a quick response and a fairly fast decay so it does not muddy up your tone on the kit. It gets out of the way faster than a larger sized cymbal.
- Incredibly smooth!
- The bell is incredibly solid - especially for an 18” Hand Hammered cymbal. I mean it’s really strong.
-
This 18” Traditional is so low pitched that it can easily pass as a 20” or 21” and can be your main ride. Or use it as a smooth Left Side Ride with drier leanings. It’s very controlled and sounds beautiful even at low volumes.
-
Crash on it for a robust FULL Dark Crash. It could easily live its whole life as a Dark Crash - that is if it wasn’t such a great Ride.
- Perfect for low to loud volumes.
- No issues. Golden glow with a patina starting to build.
- Unbelievably versatile. The only one I’ve ever seen.
