A crash cymbal is a thin, circular percussion instrument typically found in a drum kit. It produces a sharp and loud sound with a short duration. It can be made of top quality brass or titanium. It has a diameter that can range from eight to 28 inches. Used as an accent piece, it can be struck by drumsticks when mounted on a stand or by the hands when mounted in pairs. The crash cymbal is commonly used in pop, rock, country, and orchestral music.
Size: Choose a thin crash cymbal if you want to produce a light tone for light rock and pop music. For heavy metal and rock music, choose a thick crash cymbal to get a more powerful sound. Cymbal cases: When buying a crash cymbal, consider getting a cymbal case made of hard plastic along with it to protect your instrument from dents, scratches, rust, and corrosion. For easy handling, look for a case made with wheels.
