I really love it actually, it's more versatile than I had originally thought. It's like a ribbon crasher, but a little lower and with more character, and you can adjust the sustain by tightening the wingnut on the stand. I use it as a stack sound for accents but also sort of an alternate closed hat sound. Be warned though, it's a very heavy cymbal for its size so it needs a stable mount.
All my cymbals are Avedis Zildjian (hollow logo)
