This 18" 602 China Type is exotic, light, and airy, with a sparkling ping and a soft, mellow crash that sustains beautifully. While it has an oriental character, its vibrations are finer and more controlled than other China-type cymbals, resulting in a compact, direct, and perfectly balanced sound—versatile enough for jazz, fusion, or any musical setting that demands character and nuance.
