You don't really need the clarity in a China like you do for a ride, so this one's a nice addition.

A good addition to a big set of drums, but cannot be used as a ride or crash cymbal per se.

good sound for the money, I also purchased the 18inch, the two of them made a great addition to my set

combine it with a 12" splash to make a stacker it will be a great addition to your set.
