Here we have a more rarer Meinl cymbal, this is an 18" BCS crash ride, it's from the line in between HCS and Customs Classics. It has a higher bronze content that makes it a deeper darker attack and a very nice slow decay, the bell cuts through the mix loud and clear. No cracks, chips or dents, it does have a few little pitting spots "see photos" but is purely cosmetic. I've had this for years and still is a favorite of mine, this is a great cymbal for any drummer looking to add something different to the mix, slap a sizzle chain on, or a moon gel, and it completely changes personality.
As I said before in all my listening, Meinl is by far in my opinion the best of the big four companies out there, price, quality, sound and uniqueness.
