Review: Heavy and LOUD - I had a sabian XS20 before this that I really had to beat on to get it sounding right for breakdowns (definitely why it broke). This thing is so damn loud. It literally hurts. Gets everyone to shutup at practice. I love it 😀
Review: Powerful sound, arrived long before anticipated date - This is my first China cymbal, and I'm amazed by both the aesthetic and the sound quality. A fine addition to my kit. Having shipped from Osaka, Japan--it arrived a week sooner before the expected arrival date. Would recommend!

## Features

- MADE IN GERMANY: Classics Custom Dark cymbals are made at the Meinl Cymbal factory in Gutenstetten, Germany; they're formed with high-tech German engineering for consistent dark tone, powerful feel, and durability across all models
- WHY IT MATTERS: these cymbals will make your kit sound and look professional; plus, the big assortment makes it easy to find your voice whether it's just one piece or a matching complete set
- WHAT'S IN THE BOX: one 18" china cymbal; the Classics Custom Dark china cuts through mixes easily then gets out of the way, so it doesn't overtake; the flanged edge gives you smooth stick feel when striking with the shoulder
- DRIVING THE SOUND: made of durable B12 bronze alloy weighted and shaped for loud volume; extra hammering and additional lathing dial-in overtones to give the cymbals a dark, but crisp sound and controlled decay
- THE UPSIDE FOR YOU: you'll be heard next to distortion charged guitar amps or in wide-open, large rooms without sounding crazy bright or ringy
- ONE BIG THING: the great-looking dark finish is part of the cymbal making process—not just a coating that can wear off—so it will last a lifetime; bands of extra lathing expose the natural bronze
- BEST FOR: rock, metal, fusion, worship; ALSO GREAT FOR: high-energy pop, R&B, funk
- THE TAKEAWAY: Classics Custom Dark is for you if you like powerful cymbals with darker undertones, crisp attack, and a quick decay; their expert German craftsmanship is built to last
