Review: Looks good - Great addition to my kit good quality sounds great
Review: Classic Cymbal - The 8" A Custom splash is one of those 'classic' cymbals, and I'm very pleased with the one I've just purchased secondhand. What I'd say is that the shop I got it from has the s/h one and a new one, and I was surprised at how different they sounded (the s/h one sounded better, so I bought it). So even with something as innocuous as a little splash cymbal, it does pay to try before you buy (NB this is especially true with cheaper cymbal ranges such as Stagg - there are good ones out there, but plenty of trashy/gong-y ones too).
