This review is from: WUHAN WU104-18 China Cymbal 18-Inch Gong (Electronics)

I've been enjoying this cymbal a lot. Its LOUD so be careful. I use it primarily n the studio so I have to be careful where I put the microphones because it can drown out other cymbals easily. Great tone, color and brilliance. The sustain is perfect for my applications, its fast and short, so it wont linger around too long after the initial strike. I highly recommend these cymbals be it in 18", 16" and even 14"

Great buy right here.! I recently put up a review for a 14 inch Wuhan Chin, and now for the 18 inch. Right there should notice i bought myself a second Wuhan Chine. :) From my other review i've said that the 14 inch sounds amazing. And so does the 18 inch. I gotta say these are my favorite china cymbals. They are cheap in price and sound like the real deal. I find no point in now going out and buying those more expensive chine cymbals. Yes u can take the chance in cracking these things easier or more quickly but for the price who really cares. Plus if u know how to properly hit a cymbal it should last u a long time. I've had never had any of my cymbals crack. My other cymbals are Zildjian A Customs. So far i have had the Wuhan China's for a few months now and no problems. Only real problem is that i get mad that i didn't know about these cymbals sooner lol. Buy these damn china cymbals!!! LoL Highly recommend them.

I've played drums for 15 years and have gone through quite a few China Cymbals. Price sensitivity aside, the Wuhan China cymbal is the best sounding china available anywhere. Zildjian, Sabian, Paiste etc. have all tried and somehow failed to get such dynamics out of their models while charging over 3x the price of this one. The rest of my cymbals are from "higher-end" manufacturers but I'll never have anything but a Wuhan on my kit unless someone wants to pay me to do it.

Typically, I do like hand-choosing my Wuhans because they are all so unique that the sound varies tremendously but at the end of the day, it sounds the same once you blend a band, EQ and recording devices on top so I just bought it on here and the one I got sounds fantastic.
