Meinl 18" HCS Crash / Ride

It's defiantly got more of a crash feel to it but it's a good beginner cymbal if you want to have something that fills the role of a ride and a crash. I've lent mine to a friend who only uses basic beginner cymbals for a live show and he said it's a huge improvement.

Defiantly a good first purchase and it's still in one piece since I got it in 2012

It's a nice beginner cymbal. Very good build quality, sturdy and with a nice finish to it. The ride sound is great, the crash is not that bright, but it fulfils the function well enough if you need both in a single cymbal. The bell sound is distinctive and gives a few more options to try and learn new stuff.

je n'ai jamais eu une cymbale qui mélange les sons long et court sans aucunes agressivité. 2 cymbales en une. je recommande.
Thomann est bien le plus grand d'Europe de par la qualité de ces produits

If you're looking for a quality slightly smaller than normal starter ride cymbal with reasonable sound/¤ ratio then this is your thing.
+ Well built, no surface imperfections on my sample
+ Ride sounds nice, easily controllable, and doesn't burst into muddy overtones easily

+/- Crash sound is subjective (or a matter of taste), I didn't like it that much, but it wasn't "bad".

sound is excellent... really clear and sharp!

I love the ride sound. The bell is also nice and offers a nice secondary sound. the crash aspect is ok, not awful, not amazing

This sound was what I was exactly looking for. Awesome!

Cette cymbale est idéale pour tout débutant. Elle sonne correctement pour une cymbale "cheap".

I own this crush for 4 years now. It does the work for me
i like the sound ! Also you should watch out the way you clean this piece of cymbal because mine has some oxidation marks
