The main features of the Masterwork Troy Crash Cymbal 19" include:
Bought this as a cheap crash to use for metal music i play, but am amazed with the sound for the price. B20 cymbals are usually double this price. Sounds way nicer than the a custom crash i have paired it with, will definitely be buying more of this series. Great projection and looks fantastic.
I bought this one to replace my A Custom 19" that just broke after 2 years and 3 months. I bought it because it is half the price, and I have to say that the sound is pretty similar. It definitely sounds exceptional for the price. I still put 4 stars on other things because I need to see how it will last with time.
I also think it is a bit thicker than a A Custom. It sounds a bit longer and a bit heavier. But that's only noticeable because I used to play the A Custom for 2 years. The difference between both is very small. I plan to buy a 17" as well.
Other than that, the cymbal is very pretty, very shiny. I was afraid that the red marks would be awful, but it's OK. Not beautiful, but definitely OK.
