Review: Great service guys - Amazing
Review: Low end pack with a high price. - Ordered these after an unfortunate swathe of cymbal breaks and couldn't afford to replace with higher end. Watched some YouTube vid reviews which had them highly rated, but unfortunately I can't say the same. They look great, come with a high sheen finish. You can't argue with the size of the pack either, but that's sadly where it ends. The 18" and 16" crash have very little wash in them. Their sustain fades quickly and is easily lost on stage. The 20" ride isn't bad value for money and will definitely punch above its weight in use on stage but higher quality sound systems will have it found out. I haven't used the hats as my ZXTs are still alright. The 16" trash crash is trashy but extremely thin and suffers the same sustain issues as the crashes but it's density also means it has very little volume. Will be alright to act as a light crash to simulate volume without actually creating it. The splash is ok, it sits in the same level as the other cymbals but the bell is really good. It's thick, dense and carries a lot of punch for its size and the class it is in. Overall, although this is a lower end cymbal pack, for almost £500 I still expected some sort of standard from it. For: beginners who want to expand their practice kit without shelling out, more advanced musicians to flesh out a practice kit. Can get away with limited recording in a small studio with a smart engineer. Not for: any sort of live performing and most large recording spaces will have it swallowed up

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Good for metal?**
A: I honestly give these cymbals a great review. That being said, you do get what you pay for. My band plays mostly alternative, hard rock and some metal (Black Sabbath covers) and they do the job.The ride and the bell are awesome. Seriously a nice sounding ride cymbal.The crash cymbals are ok but don't have a lot of sustain in my opinion.If you like using effects (bells, splashes, china, trash crash), this this is an amazing set. Gives you tons of options to customize your sound. The trash crash is my favorite, but unfortunately, the china sounds like hot garbage.Hope this helps! I really enjoy the whole set. I use a substitute china cymbal, however, because I can't get over how bad this one sounds.

**Q: What  colors do they come in**
A: Just brass

**Q: How many cymbals do they come with?**
A: Pretty much everything you see in the pics. 
20” ride
18” crash
16”crash
14” crash
14” hi hats
14” China
10” splash
8-10” bell
14” (or 16”) trash crash

9 total.  I will say that for the money and a beginning set of cymbals it was worth it. Some of the crash cymbals seem kind of “tinny” when you hit them but all around they are pretty decent. The smaller crash cymbals have about as much speed on them as a good quality splash.

**Q: what is the total weight of the cymbals ?**
A: I’m sorry, but I cannot remember the weight. But, I would like to inform you that the quality of the cymbles is excellent.

Grate set of cymbals can take a beating the thrash and the China are my favourite out of the set
