Thomann China Cymbal 50cm

Perfect for loud music at a competetive price

Pros:

+ B20, Trashy, loud and superb for use in heavy and loud music: gojira, thy art and even in some primus songs it holds up to the much pricier options on the market, which leads to the next point:

+ Price??! it's basically free and I dont think im ever getting other chinas.

Cons:

- Has to be hit hard to open up at all, cant really (in my opinion) be used as a second ride in jazzier settings.

- Thin, after some time now it has started to chip away in the outer rim, but it has been used really hard so it's nothing I wouldn't expect.

TL;DR: Buy it, you won't regret it: perfect for loud music at a competetive price.

Really loud China!

It cuts very well and sounds really explosive.

It's thin so you have to be careful not to break it. Also, the hole doesn't fit some stands.

Good heavy china, but not durable

Broke within 6 months.

The sound was great, it was extremely loud and heavy, Perfect for metal/heavy music.

had a lot of dents and the hole is drilled wrong.

Good china considering the price.

Pros: Cheap, made of B20 bronze, worth the price.

Cons: I had to make the hole for a cymbalstand bigger with sandpaper because it wouldn't fit properly otherwise, but at this price, I'm not supprised to find flaws.

Neutral: It has a pretty trashy and raw sound to it, maybe a little bit too loud for the styles I play. Probably well suited for metal and other heavier styles.

Budget Chinese Cymbal

Well made China type cymbal. It's quite thin with a nice brilliant finish. When used in a rock band it sounds very trashy with little decay so perhaps it's a little too dry. It complements my existing Paiste 20" China type cymbal well. Good value.
