it is a variant of the raw bell line by Sabian. It is very thin for its weight, giving it tremendous complexity. very washy but articulate enough to cut the ping through guitar amps and vocals. great crashability and the sound is controlled so that it does not wash away with blunt force trauma. the bell is gorgeous . it cuts prominently. overall, JUST the cymbal that you will see on all those youtube videos! i am extremely proud of it.
