Goodsound, terrible quality

This cymbal sounded great for what I needed it.

It really cuts through when you hit it. It has a great thrashy but bright and precise sound.

I enjoyed playing on it for around 10 rehearsals.

However, when playing one day, a huge crack appeared, starting from one of the holes, half way to the next hole, along the grove.

It was clearly a bad cymbal, since the crack appeared on the top part of the cymbal that never gets hit directly. And the cymbal has never been transported, so the crack appeared just from the vibrations.

I have since returned the cymbal, and am hoping for a refund.

EDIT: The second cymbal I got also broke, even thought it lasted few more months than the first one. Definitely these cymbals have a quality issue.

Pros:

Great sound

Not expensive

Cons:

Quality is a serious issue
