Looks and sounds amazing
I got my new 16 inch custom dark trash China a few weeks ago and love it great sound that really cuts through and meshes great with my 17 inch custom dark trash crash can't wait to switch out completely to this brand

Amazing trashy china
This is possibly the best sounding china cymbal I’ve played for the money. It’s quick to respond with dark trashy tone and minimal overtones. Virtually no sustain. It’s in and out of the mix. Just like a china should be. For metal, there is no better china for this price. Also make a great stack option. 5 stars.

Great product
Great sound! Was strictly a Zildjian player for over 40 years. I will be replacing them with Meinel as needed moving forward.

Loud as it should be
Great sound. Complements the rest of my kit well.

Great sound! Favorite piece on my set.
Marks up a bit easier than traditional brass.

Amazing
The sound that comes from this cymbal is stunning. I use it for accent crashes during songs and at the end of songs to slowly decay. It cuts through the mix like a buzzsaw. I just ordered the 18" version of this awesome cymbal.

Great for the price
If you only use one China I would go with the 18 since this one has pretty much no sustain. Great for fills and accents but not a big sound. -edit- This thing developed a crack pretty fast by the bigger hole going up to the bell. I was worried about this because these holy cymbals do crack a lot easier :/
